Came across a small group of white-tailed deer...
Also encountered was this immature eagle not far from a nest on a small island...
The original winding path of the river seemed clearly discernable in the lake-like/water chestnut- plagued section upriver from the dam at East Pepperell...
Perhaps the channel is being kept clear by machines harvesting water chestnut plants.
The USGS gauge at East Pepperell recorded 5' which is a little on the high side for July and will likely go even higher in the coming days as a result of this weekend's deluge-fest.
The higher water levels had floated down another batch of miniature alcohol bottles also known as "nips" from upriver. On Thursday there were another 71 of them all found at one fallen-tree trash trap spanning more than half the river channel.
Where's a "Bermuda High" weather system when we need one?
