Why don't I ever see something good when I go to Lake Elkhorn! I was just there on Tuesday, but didn't see too much, besides a Green Heron and about 4 Great Blue Herons. When I go back next week, do you think the Little Blue Heron will still be there? Oh yeah, is Fore Bay Pond that little 'swamp' behind the big lake?
