Who Are Best Fishermen on the Lake?


I love watching osprey on a lake looking for a tasty snack! Fish Lake next door to Nordegg has several osprey and a handful of loons that feed primarily on the stocked rainbows in the lake. It is quite fascinating to watch their hunting and feeding behaviour. The osprey in particular smash the water  and their razor sharp talons grasp their lunch. Loons just seem to cruise around looking for an unwary rainbow. Often the loons hang out close to the fishermen. When a rainbow is released, the loons try to chase it down for a tasty snack!

Have an awesome Labour Day long weekend!
