| A thing speeding along the shores of the Schoharie Creek |
While picking up the freshly repaired chainsaw, we also went to our favorite birding spots yesterday.

| Buffleheads |
While perusing Buffleheads and Wood Ducks I spotted a....thing....racing down the Schoharie.
It was moving so fast...everything is at or near flood stage...that I could barely get it in the view finder before it was gone.
Next we went down to Yankee Hill Lock to look around some more. The boss soon found a lovely and intricate kinda cairn of carefully stacked stones atop a riverside boulder. He called me over from where I was peering at ducks to take some pictures of it.
Just before I got to him I found myself laughing incredulously as the same....thing...came racing, even faster, down the river towards us. I hadn't mentioned it at Schoharie Crossing, so he thought I was nuts...but we are both used to that.
Anyhow, once again I had to click pretty fast to capture it, but as it was on the same sides as we were this time, we got a bit of a better look.....any guesses? And what are the odds we would see it sailing by in both places?
