Enter and exit river at same point.

Relaxed paddle on the Bark

No eagle this time but saw cormorant, plover and all of the birds we saw last week. We went upstream from Burnt Village back. A great relaxing afternoon. Beautiful blue sky and fluffy clouds. Dark clouds rolled in but no rain.

Paddled with Gene and Susan.
