One thing I have not seen at the river this year,the decline must be true then.

Seagulls,last year they were plentiful this year..not one,cormorants lacking very few ducks also.I got to the dam at 7:15 this bright morning..

Canal side,no action I could see other than a million minners(in case you didn't know that's Florida slang for minnow) so I went to the bridge,along the way I ran into a few critters.






Some wild stuff is put underneath this bridge,guy must have been on some kind of hallucinogenic.



The last 6 days they have recovered 3 bodies from the river,I see this search crew going up river



then these guys launched,at which point I should have asked them what thy were looking for.




Pretty soon we are going to have a blizzard...dam cottonwood.



PS..I see one dead shad fish,gonna smell pretty foul soon.

GOD Bless

Chris

WT, that bridge pic is beautiful, it really is, but when I read your description, my awe turned to sadness. It seems the older I get, the more tender hearted I get. I love your pics. Keep 'em coming please!

Back in the late 70's, seagulls started showing up in the parking lot of a local shopping center in Monticello, Ky. Long way from the ocean

We've got tons of gulls around here as well. There are many types of gulls - not all of them associate with coastal waters. Some of them like slumming it in the swamps, like around here.
