South Shore Isabel Harte to Burkett park and Back

Route    Isabel Harte > Winding Snake > Burkett park > Suzanne's Trail > Lanky Lackey > park road (ENE) to Isabel Harte > Isabel Harte      3.4 miles

Temps in low 30's to start, upper 30's at end.  Sunny light and variable wind.

An easy stroll along familiar trails.  Saw a small herd of deer, quite a few birds and four javalinas.  Never got close enough to get a good photo of the javalinas since they maintained a good distance between us and them.  The herd of deer were spotted in the dried lake bed as we prepared to hike - they disappeared in the brush just as we started to hike.  Lots of birds including a Ruby Crowned Kinglet were seen.

Trails are dry and easy to traverse.  Not much to report so will close.
