Closed out the first week of June with a paddle down the Concord River starting from the Bedford Boat Ramp (above photo). It was a perfect day for paying a visit to the Faulkner Dam in North Billerica. One of the more scenic spots along the way is the Fordway Bar just below the Pollard Street bridge...
With the river at its present level and the current being slow, the rocks in the bar are easily avoided.
Before leaving the dam area it appeared the river was looking back at me...
Later ran across this cormorant perched on a wire...
...which I would've thought difficult on account of their presumably webbed feet.Very little in the way of trash...
On the previous Friday I paddled the Sudbury River from River Road in Wayland where repair work is still underway on the Route 27 bridge...
Just before reaching the Route 20 bridge came across this cormorant cluster...
I'd imagine a gang this big would clean out the local fish population in short order.
