Sort of a long shot of the lake at Silverbell Park here in Tucson. The lake supports boating and fishing, but no swimming. There's an unusual green tinge to the water. It reminds me of the glacial lakes in Alaska. I wonder if there's a connection to the water treatment plant next door. I once knew someone who finally left the desert after many years saying, "I've had enough brown." Silverbell Park does have lots of brown. I haven't played the golf course here yet, but wonder if the greens are really green.
Silverbell Park has a dog park. This chipper lad was having a grand time with his owner and his frisbee.
I think that these fellows are mallards. I'm guessing that they will be headed North before long. Most of the birds here are small and brown. But there's also a diverse population of migratory birds.
