Rain, Rain, Go Away

Alas, the rain returned yesterday and ruined the chances of us doing one more bike ride in Wisconsin.  Guess we have to be thankful for the days of sunshine and warmer weather that we did have.  The pics below were taken on Saturday morning.  This was the view of the Algoma lighthouse looking through a spider web.

We headed first to the lighthouse and the beach with no planned route in mind. 
As usual, I was stopping to take pics of the lake and a nearby statue that captured my eye.  Don waited patiently while I snapped away.  Notice how busy the street traffic was......
The statue was next to St.Agnes-by-the-Lake Episcopal Church which is situated across from the beach. Their congregation first met together in 1877!
After winding our way through town we headed for the hills, so to speak.  There was even less traffic out here.
On our way back we noticed some big objects on an old decrepit barn.  At first I thought they were metal sculptures.  We had just ridden past a house of an artist who had a sign outside advertising her sculpture business. 
Then we both realized the objects were birds!  Maybe huge crows?  Nope! They were turkey vultures!

The ugly heads gave them away.  I never thought I'd see this type of wildlife in Wisconsin!  These are certainly not the type of birds that congregate at Roy and Char's backyard bird feeder!  Talk about creepy!😨
