Most of the locals call this area around the lake Rookery Road. At one time you could drive around parts of the lake and observe the nesting Roseate Spoon Bills and Herons as they raised their babies. This photo was taken around sunrise and it wasn't long before the kayakers were paddling out from the boat launch. Some were fisherman, some were photographers, and some like my-self (on dry land) were observers. Cajun Swamp Tour specializes in boat tours on the lake.
