Ripple
Good day to you, traveler!
I’m not surprised you stopped by while I was out and about—I’m hardly ever home!
My name is Ripple, and living so close to Milford Lake and State Park, I can’t think of many reasons to stay home except to eat, sleep...and hide from really bad weather!
I got my name because I LOVE spending time in the water, around the water, on top of the water, and anywhere close to the water! You might find me kayaking, splashing along the shoreline, or meeting up with my bird friends in the shallows.
Pelicans are fun, but the ducks are the life of the party!
I especially love when human campers stay near the lake because they almost always build campfires. And do you know what campfires mean?
S’MORES!
Between you and me, if a marshmallow ever mysteriously disappears from your campsite...I wouldn't blame the ducks.
So, if you’re exploring Milford Lake and happen to see a bright little shimmer near the water, look closely—it just might be me!
Be sure to send me a wave!
DID YOU KNOW?
American white pelicans can be spotted at Milford Lake?
These huge birds can have a wingspan of about 9 feet, making them one of the largest birds in North America! Unlike brown pelicans, they usually don’t dive from the sky for their dinner. Instead, they work together in the water to scoop up fish with their enormous bills.
