Around the U.S.
Three Sisters Island, another small island in the Niagara River, lies off the south side of Goat Island. Three Sisters Island, accessible only by a footbridge, is surrounded on all sides by the Niagara Rapids. A small trolley continuously circles Goat Island, making it easy for visitors to travel between the various locations.
I rode the trolley to the stop nearest Three Sisters Island and walked across the foot bridge. At the far end of the island I found this shady little cove.
The opposite end of the island provides a view of the Niagara Rapids. Some of the water flowing along the Niagara River is diverted above the falls and used to generate hydroelectric power.
From the bridge back to Goat Island I spotted this little bird perched on one of the rocks in the middle of the rapids. I suppose it was waiting for a fish to swim by.

What a great picture of the bird!
Those rapids are so pretty! I love the bird's yellow feet:)
You have such sharp pictures of the rapids - especially the texture in the water.
