Not just a trailer potato as it has seen some water.

Lots of amazing photos as of recent. We're getting antsy for a voyage.

Terrible photo but somewhat believable tall tale in brief: Heard splashing from far behind. Spied cow moose in water with binoculars. Hurriedly paddled closer. Spied again and saw 3 critters in line with cow in front. Befuddled as to what the other 2 forms were. Paddled closer and found in...

I bet you are right about the raptor culprit. Lots of eagles around here as well.

That is a grand meal for a turtle no matter how big it is. I can envision a turtle and goose crossing paths but am baffled how a grouse ended up in in that predicament as have never seen one fly over a lake and doubt I ever will. It's always tough to decide where to get involved with Mother...

This was the smaller of the two that crawled out of the lake & past my dad's cabin the past few springs. Not seen from the canoe but it was only steps away on the top of my van.

Oooops. Sorry. The turtle. No, he did not catch it but instead quickly exited the water. I've got some incredible photos of these beasts we've come across. Stay tuned if interested.

YOU WIN! 🤣 Yesterday my brother told me last summer while swimming he saw some splashing so floated over to find a grouse (Huh?!?) struggling in the water. Yes a grouse of all things but it gets better...The grouse was partially alive however attached to it was a giant snapper. Eeeeek! Kinda...

Sometimes referred to as the "Blech" we happened across this fine example of the Purple-Fingered Fur Frog in the sunny shallows of a crystal clear lake as it was blissfully photosynthesizing; adding layers and length to it's fuzzy pelt.

Welcome!

I have met many enlightened souls in my life...All of them were cats.

Uggh. Have no idea how to delete this. Photo did not come through. My bad.

Totally agreed. We are "leave no trace behind/tread lightly/don't drive on the grass" outdoor-folk (to possibly the extreme) and also land-owners of properties in the sticks so have been on the flip side of this often. Theft, vandalism, litter, and some jerk even stole the Fruit Loops from the...

We were glad we didn't meet this guy.

It does look a lot like the bog-land North of Bemidji but I think that shot was East of Atikokan ON.

Just recently purchased our second perfect canoe. For me they must be used & somewhat neglected or put to pasture for some reason or another as I enjoy breathing a bit if life back into them.

Copy that. 6' paddle for standing. I stand as often as reasonable & certainly sketchy with something much shorter. However must confess it's been over a decade since I've brought a backup paddle Please don't tell my mom. Tonight will be spent searching competitive poling as I was not aware...
