Wind: 6mph from S
OC: 6
Streaky white wisps in blue sky
Cormorant patrols, dives in reclaimed 1N
Bright green trees and blue sky ripple and smear on water
Leaves spin, shimmer, and brush in the breeze
Water glistens as it wrinkles
Peek over at 5 – still 100% blocked by barrier rocks
Not a single sign of geese on entire lake
Thistle sprouting purple thrones
Decapitated turtle bounces gently in water’s ripples
So many shadows of paddlefish (in 1, 3, 4 SE)
Nature’s constancy and beauty unfazed by society’s turmoil
