The weather was basically dismal when we were in Wisconsin—lots of rain and very cool temperatures. The high one day was 48°. On the one bright, sunny day with warmer temps, Tracy and I decided to take a walk along part of the Lake Michigan Pathway. We started just north of the Racine Zoo and walked to the marina downtown. It ended up being a little over three miles. Aside from the very brisk wind, it was a perfect day for a walk.

There were lots of red-winged blackbirds along the path. This was one of the better shots. I had my small mirrorless camera with me with doesn’t have much of a zoom lens.
And there were hundreds of sea gulls on the beach.
More seagulls, but a better look at the beautiful blue colors of the lake.
A view of the marina. You can see that the leaves still haven’t appeared on the trees, despite the fact that it was the middle of May.
Another photo for my shadow collection.
You can see the Wind Point Lighthouse in the distance. Sarah and Adam live just a mile or so from the lighthouse, and I have another series of photos from there coming soon.
We’re hoping to walk more of this pathway in our future trips to Racine.
beautiful photos, I love the beach ones
Brrr, but what a walk. The UP and WI are two spots on my bucket list though for US visits. It’s amazing to see a swarm of birds on the beach.
What a pleasant area. You photos are always so crisp and light – I particularly like the first one of the gulls.
A very pleasant walk. I see that seagull photo & think Charmaine, well actually a scene from one of the Indiana Jones movie with all the seagulls on a similar looking beach.
beautiful photos what a pleasant area.
Thanks for letting us walk alongside.
Those seagull photos are spectacular – how nice to be able to see a part of the world I may not get the chance to visit! Mind you, I like the ones with the rocks in the foreground too – great perspective.
