First Day Of Spring!
Procreation is in the air, and, the water...
Click on photo to enlarge - © 2010 jim otterstromDuring our first walk of spring today, Peggy, Dallas, and I came across this pool of Spotted Brown Trout trying to make it upstream to suitable spawning grounds.
We have seen trout in this pool before, during early spring of previous years, but it still takes my breath away when we come upon them.
These beauties were at least 14 to 16 inches in length.
Today is one of only two times during the year in which the day and the night are of equal length, and, once again, I bow in humble respect to the wonders of nature.
A Joyful Vernal Equinox to you!
