I took a quick drive down Blackdog road and back, I saw 4 eagles, a hawk, some pelicans, and a swan. I ran into a Father/Daughter pair who almost slid into the River. They were driving up to the River bank near a the West end of the dam and it was a slight grade towards the River glaze ice, they hit the brakes, things started going in slow motion thinking they would plunge off the size and into the River but, were able to stop in the snow but, were entirely stuck. I gave them my phone to call his wife for a tow out but, he had the keys to the other vehicle, so I gave them a ride home cutting my trip short a bit early. I was going to head to the Cedar Bridge side where the water is open and just setup a tripod. I have the day off tommorow, I am thinking about taking the kids down to Wabasha tommorow for a few hours.
Handheld @ 400mm (644mm with crop factor, overexposed & shutter speed was way too slow for handheld shots at 400mm).
