A duck’s neck is very flexible! How’s this for a move?
I’m certain these ducks in the creek are the family that we’ve watched grow up in our bay. They didn’t seem the least bothered by Lindor having a swim just a few feet from them.

Strange storm cloud
Lesson learned taking this pic – always bring the whole camera bag (at least the other lens!). I was only a few steps from home with my zoom lens on when I noticed the odd formation. I snapped this quickly with the lens pulled back as far as possible. By the time I ran back, switched to the wide angle and returned, the sky had changed, the ‘donut’ no longer visible.
Still water
While gliding by on the still water, these rocks seemed suspended in mid air!
In the cleft of the rock
More images of my canoe paddle at Flindt Lake:
Yes, it had begun to rain. I paddled around this rock (scared the gull off) and found
where some soil had gathered in the cleft of the rock, a shrub had take root.
My best guess? Wild Columbine.
Another water blossom
Stiff arrowheadI took this picture one quiet, early morning canoe paddle at Flindt Lake. This little blossom profoundly stood out in among the varying shades of green along the shoreline. I had no idea what type of plant it was until returning home and researching. (Thanks D & B!) In the future I will have to remember to take pictures of the leaves and stems…
Speaking of wet,…
Wet has been unavoidable this summer. We have had more than our usual days of rain. Even the ducks are tired of it. Aquatic vegetation, on the other hand, is abundant.

I love the way the water looks in this shot. Do you suppose the insect’s landing caused the ripple?
