Santee Cooper Lakes
As we drive Southward and leave the big city of D.C. behind, the weather warms, the landscape changes from wild things of urban living to wild things of nature. Today I saw an Eagle carrying something in his talons flying low...such a rare view and now etched in my mind with other times driving through the Cudo Reserve. Once an owl flew down and snatched a snake much too big for him. Watching the ensuing struggle was quite a memorable event as the owl was quite determine to take his dinner home, but to no avail. 15 feet alligators lounge along the lake shores and pileated woodpeckers dart from tree to tree. I often thing nature may be the greatest art and perhaps our ability to see and appreciate her masterwork makes us the artist as well.
