Lowdown on the Sudbury

I had what little water there was remaining at the Lincoln Canoe Launch all to myself late yesterday afternoon.  Without some badly needed rain this slough leading to the Sudbury River may become unusable.

Further upriver Pantry Brook is contributing next to nothing in the way of water...


Of course wading birds like the killdeers and sand pipers are enjoying the additional real estate along the shore...
 

This blue heron blended in nicely amidst the pickerelweed...

Perhaps owing to the low water levels, the river was found to be a quiet and serene place to spend a July afternoon...

Only a small amount of trash, recently left high and dry by the receding river, was recovered...
