Turtle Lake

This is a shot of Turtle Lake. It's in the Will County Forest Preserve system and backs the Lake Renwick project - where there is an awesome blue heron rookery. If you look really close there's a pair of swans a little right of dead center of the photo. I found 2 pair of white swans yesterday (among the millions of Canadian geese).
You can see how the drought has really affected the water lines here. The lakes are very low.

The county turned this land into a Forest Preserve after it was dug out. It used to be a quarry.
