Farewell to Summer's Last Full Moon







Mrs. Trashpaddler and I decided to watch this summer's last full moon climb above the treetops while afloat on the Sudbury River.  Our vantage point was Martha's Point.  Paddling further upriver into Fairhaven Bay found the moon higher still...


The sun had set quietly about 25 minutes earlier...

And in the interim, there was just enough light to roundup 4 more bait tubs, a plastic jug, and an empty fish hook package at Heaths Bridge...
YTD total 4849.

On our return trip downriver, we heard a chorus of owls at Martha's Point, some loud disputes amongst the heron population, and nearly a dozen beaver tail slaps.   We were also followed by a good deal of moonshadow!
