Crane Cove Bird Watching

What fun it is to watch this bird at one of the Crane Cove bird feeders.
These are photographs of the Lake Huron beach in front of Candlelite Cove.

From cranes, loons, chickadees, cardinals, indigo buntings, woodpeckers, blue jays, ducks, bald eagles and our little friend we affectionately call sentry gull, we have been entranced by these flying beauties.  As I add the gull photo, I am reminded of the fierce little hummingbirds which are currently buzzing around Candlelite Cove enjoying both the feeders and the flowers.

The north shoreline of Lake Huron in Michigan's Upper Peninsula has long been known as one of the most beautiful and pristine areas of wilderness in all of the Midwest. The Nature Conservancy has recognized this area of shoreline as one of  "The Last Great Places" in the Northern Hemisphere. 

The rocky shorelines and protected bays like Candlelite Cove's area, create excellent habitats for fish, rare orchids and flowers, not to mention one of the Midwest's most diverse collection of bird species.  The deer below was another recent guest, staring at us with those huge eyes before wandering off between the beach and pretty hedge. We hope that like ourselves, you will be enchanted by our little cove, and will enjoy returning again and again.
