Notes

Partly cloudy and calm. No rain in past 24 hrs. Saw porcupine climbing up a tree nearby as we walked to test location and a family of either beavers or muskrats ( too far to be able to tell which exactly ) swimming around downstream of us. Lots of chickadees and other songbirds, and red winged blackbirds here. So much green slimy algae everywhere and river seems to be much lower than we remember seeing it since we’ve been coming here....wonder if beavers have been doing some of their work to affect this?
