Before venturing east to the waters of Cape Ann, I headed out in the pre-dawn hours to watch this summer day begin in Pompositticut. The view at left was looking back downriver towards the east. Clouds were hanging tough on the eastern horizon while patches of blue sky were developing to the west. Proceeding upriver, I encountered these tree swallows living up to their name...
A little further along a beaver was still working near the end of his shift...
This duck didn't seemed the least interested in turning to see the sunrise. In fact, it seemed to be comatose....
However, I did turn around just in time to drink-in this view...
Upon reaching the Route 62 bridge in Gleasondale, I turned around and headed back to my takeout location at Sudbury Road in Stow.
There, my newly aquired 55 piece of trash assembled hullside...
There were 33 recyclable containers (19 redeemable) and 22 pieces of miscellaneous rubbish such as paper and plastic bags, styrofoam, and a few nip bottles.
Yesterday's trash pedal on the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail with Mrs. Trashpaddler resulted in the 14 pieces of trash pictured here...
YTD total stands at 3989.
