Very nice Catfishnut!

I haven't been out hardly at all yet this year. So much snow and cold temps lately, but with a small warmup here, hopefully I can get back to the woods soon. Here's a photo I took back in January of the pond in the woods behind my house!

Here's a boathouse on the Bay of Quinte (mid-December 2012) that we all call the "Bat Cave", at first glance it looks like a mechanical waterfall.

Finally got in the woods a few days ago and noticed the stream back there is finally flowing again. Surprisingly this stream doesn't seem to have much wildlife in or around it. usually a small school of minnows hangs out in it, and thats about it... possible because it dries up before June.

We have a steam that only runs when it rains real hard or snow melts, sort of a runoff stream. I never go back to it, our woods are wild, a lot of trees have sort of fallen down with this winter. I can see big trees barely held up with little trees. Way to dangerous to go back there. We leave it for the wild life.
