Thomas Lake. Home to dozens of species of wildlife including
bunny rabbits, squirells, ducks, and small birds. It was here that I saw my
first fireflies and wondered how easy it would be to accurately render images
of fireflies with a computer.
The city of Eagan keeps the trails around the lake maintained and has
posted a trail map showing the various routes around the lake.
Christine tries her hardest to pose as a statue in front of Thomas Lake's
colorful treeline.
This image does well in displaying the serenity of the lake in the
evenings.
Thomas Lake Pointe, our apartment community, can be seen in the
background of this photo. The native prarie preserved around Thomas
Lake has a paved bicycling/jogging path through it which circles the
lake.
An American Golfinch feeds on the seeds from some tall grass.
I keep meaning to ask someone if the mushrooms around here are anything
like the mushrooms which grow so abundantly in the northwest.
Wild bunny rabbits are everywhere!
Here's the sign for Thomas Lake Pointe, our apartment community.
