Hi All Late yesterday BB and I went to the Cornwallis for a late evening - early night paddle. There was a great collection of moths on the river. One group - medium sized brown fellows flew around in great numbers while the sun was on the water. all less than 1 meter above the water - soon as the sun disappeared - they did too. Then the caddis flies the regular brown ones along with the yellow ones were out in abundance. A lot of smaller flies also with dragonflies cruising and spiders with their stalls out looking for customers. A very lively insect river. The bats can out at dusk - lots of them right in our faces. Seemed they were in groups - prehaps they nest nearby but I didn't see any NSLC stores along the river. A lot of sparrows also - no doubt attracted to the river by the insects. They were feeding on the grass. The river is at a nice level for paddling - the water is very clear and there are some deep pools in the section where I was. The deep water makes paddling easy when the only light is the light of the stars. Just before I got back - I flushed a beaver ahead of me. Every couple of minutes it slapped the water with its tail. makes it very nature like. Have a nice summer Paul __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
