Is It The Swamp Monster?

Not even an alligator disturbs

The water’s surface like  dancing bugs.

Snakes trail a V shaped smooth wake.

Sometimes fish might disturb the surface …

When feeding on the bugs that are stirring it up.

Churning ripples are water bugs swimming around.

The trees have leafed out since I took this photo over two weeks ago, and there has been more rain so that the water is higher.  It is also one degree above freezing.  Again.

Walk In The Woods With Bear

 

 

Driveway to the house. With plenty of rain this summer the vegetation is thick. July 2013 Bear

Footing can be treacherous and walks in the woods are difficult. The best way to avoid snakes is to let them know you are coming. Make noise. Tell the , out loud, that you are just passing through. You’ll see less wildlife, but that is the point. Most animals prefer to avoid people. Of course alligators have different habits than snakes. And I am fairly ignorant about the behavior of invasive pythons. July 2013 Bear
