Today in the creek was very eclectic and thought provoking...found 2 NA shards, a marble, weird aqua/green stuff, a green glass shard and a sweet tiny flake. The one green round thing at the top is copper underneath the green and heavy. Anyway, you never know what creek spirit has for you each time you go there :notworthy:

Oh and a groundhog gave me a bit of a fright...heard what sounded like a bigger animal, thinking a deer since one has been around alot lately and it sounded like it was coming my way so I stopped what I was doing and waited. Dang groundhog came almost right up to me, or really right above me on the bank. So I hollered at it and it moved on upstream. Made me more alert though lol

Almost looks like a copper jacketed slug or bullet? Nice day out today. Those ground hogs get pretty big and look like wise old men when they get old. I bet you scared him to death haha . Fun day Peaches :hello:

Nice shards. The cooper thing IDK the green stone looks like limestone frags normal rock for creek.
One time I was yakking and I saw what looked like a cat in the bushes. Im a animal lover so I went to the bank and said ..........here kitty kitty. Well all of a sudden a big male ground hog came running down the bank at me. Wow I paddled fast, I guess he was protecting his home. You could tell he was a male by what was dragging on the ground by his tail. I couldn't stop thinking it must of hurt when he hit some of those thorny vines we have in the woods. :laughing7:

Hey rock I meant to say this but your comment sidetracked me, I sounded like my Alabama born and raised Daddy when I hollered at it. I always lapse into it when I'm running things off...it goes like this "git!!! git on outta heah!" with real loud emphasis on the "git!" and throw a rock at em too! Didn't work as well on the black racer last year though, because that one came back for a better look so I was the one to "git" outta there lol
