Looking around a bit

Today, guided by artist and Naturalist Terry Daulton, I was introduced to some of the lakes and bogs studied by the researchers here, had a wonderful conversation with station director and scientist Gretchen Gerrish. After the rain and drizzle cleared I ended my explorations for today with gorgeous spin on the lake in a kayak. Following images are more exquisite than words could be.
