While enjoying Canmore, we found an incredible gravel road that led us deeper into the mountains.
The beginning of the road seemed to be the hot spot for climbing. As we traveled further, we came upon a beautiful little lake by the name of Goat Lake. Up the road from that was Spray Lakes. We drove down the boat ramp and got out to enjoy the serenity of it all. We were just getting ready to leave when we spotted a duck out on the lake. I grabbed my new super power lens and saw it was a Loon. They have to be one of the most beautiful and spiritual birds on the planet. As we traveled down the road back towards Canmore we stopped at a little wetlands along the road. The bird traffic was great and I shot these photos of birds. The grey one is a yellow rumped Audubon's warbler. I couldn't find the yellow one in my bird book. Can anyone identify it? The ground squirrels are everywhere in the Rockies. They are driving the dog crazy!
