Back to the creek

I am planning to return to the creek next week to continue on the stuff we did at Christmas. I want to finish the window and door facings in the master bedroom and the windows in the dining room. I can't do the door facings there until we get the flooring down. I plan on leaving on Wednesday and staying for a week. It may be a little longer depending on weather and how much I get done.

The bird in the picture is a male Great Blue Heron. He is courting the female who is standing, or rather dancing on the next pier. These are beautiful birds and are quite large. For reference, the grey square on the post next to the bird is about waist high on me or around 3 feet above the deck, so this bird is easily 5 feet tall or more when his neck and head is extended as it is in this picture.
