This lake grass grows from the bottom, then goes with the flow after it reaches the surface. This is one of the most intricate patterns I've seen. It reminds me of etched glass.

Down this quiet little cul de sac, the beavers have been busy constructing another lodge. Talk about suburban sprawl.
Why two so close together when they have a whole lake to choose their site. Mother-in-law apartment, maybe?
Anyway, while beavers are known to be hard workers (I still can't figure out how they haul mud up the sides of those lodges to cement everything in place), they aren't known to be the quietest of neighbors.
To wit:
They make so much ado about nothing.... like a little blue kayak moseying their way.

While we're combining things, mix Tern Lake, one common loon, and the 10 PM light after the storm and you have this:
You must be pretty good with a lasso to round up all these interesting sights.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the lake grass. Such a lovely pattern and nobody can sign their name below the amazing work of art.
Have you changed your background? Changed the settings on your camera? Something's different. Really good photos before; spectacular now. My brain is fried. Going to bed. So much to tell you. And I sure grinned seeing your special sidebar note for me!! Now you know why my nickname is Twitchy Baby!
