Spring At The Vermilon River.

This post is crammed with photos taken over the last couple of days. So I suggest you use the slideshow,and I'll keep copy to a minium. With warmer tempeatures, I was also able to get into the large wertland to find the aquatics. They've moved from the River which is in flood. We're receiving flood warnings daily, because politicians have allowed building permits in areas where rock and wetland should have been left to prevail. Even everyday people are now taking about global warming here, and its attendent problems. Opposite is a sunrise through black spruce trees. The grouse was sitting in a tree looking at Boomer and I.
