Some things just lend themselves to a camera's lens.
The nice thing about White Rock Lake is that there are many docks that give visitors a close-up look at wildlife, especially this time of year when little ducks are being hatched. The birds are also nesting and going out and coming in to feed their hatchlings.
The reeds grow in certain areas and not in others. Where there are reeds, not only are their some water moccasins but also red-wing blackbirds, various species of ducks besides mallards and turtles. In short, there are multiple examples of wildlife compressed into small areas. Not only do the boardwalks give a clean view of the lake off-shore, the boardwalks also provide a walk-way to observe nature close-up.
Here are a few shots with a little twist.
