A few early winter birds

Taken this evening.

Nice, what type of fish in the water? Brookies?

oddly, no one seems to know whats in there. Someone told my wife that they used to catch trout in it. I highly doubt it. It gets very VERY warm in the summer months. It is not recognized by the DNR as a trout stream. It has a LOT of slow, stale water. Theres no doubt there would be Northerns in it in the spring and maybe the fall. Anyway, I plan on finding out

PS Thanks Larry! It was a beautiful evening and 16 degrees! that river will be frozen solid soon. It is a popular snowmobile route as well as snowshoing and X-country skiing.
I have some very fond memories of Blacks beach. And it had nothing to do with birds, fish, or water for that matter....if you catch my drift
