Stumps on the march

On the shore of Upper Campbell Lake, I met some wandering stumps.

Marching. A delegation, maybe? A protest? "Where has our water gone? You've left us high and dry!"

Some kind of crawling critter.

Looks annoyed, but I'm sure it's not dangerous.

This one stays above the water line, so it grows moss and lichen and huckleberries. The soaked inner wood looks really red in the rain.

That's the last of that drive to Gold River. Birds back home, next.

En la orilla del lago Upper Campbell, encontré un grupo de tocones en marcha.
  1. Parece una marcha de protesta. Reclamando el bajo nivel del agua que les ha dejado expuestos al aire, tal vez.
  2. Algún tipo de bicho patudo.
  3. Se ve como que está algo enfadado, pero no creo que sea peligroso.
  4. Este tronco vive donde el agua solo le llega pocas veces al año, y por consiguiente hospeda musgos y líquenes y hasta algunas plantas de huckleberry. (Vaccinium parvifolium)
Y con esto se acaban las fotos de la vuelta a Gold River en la lluvia.

I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.

Also, I have word verification on, because I found out that not only do I get spam without it, but it gets passed on to anyone commenting in that thread. Not cool!
