Notes
There were scuddles or small shrimp on the banks- see pictures. There are three evergreens that were alive at the beginning of the seasonal and now have turned red. There are other red evergreens that I have spotted. Questioning if they were hurt overwintering in warm weather or if there is potential other reasons for this anomaly.
Lots of Foliage be careful and watch for Cows parsnip which can cause itchiness. Long grasses make it hard to see the uneven ground.
