We went here for a picnic.

Polly wanted sticks thrown.

Beautiful!
Polly had the right idea!
And that isn't a nest, it's a mud *castle*!:)

It makes me wonder how I end up with peewee chicks who have fallen from the nest.

No kidding! Silly birdies!
The first picture reminds me of a spot my family used to camp by during fishing trips in Wyoming, the Platte. It has a lot more rocks, mud and helgramites, however:P. It was on that spot however that I caught my first trout of really good length and weight, I miss the good ol' days:).

But no crocs? What kinda of world's most deadly continent is that where one can go picnicking about the banks of any gorgeous random river without the possibility of being eaten? ;-)

CYa!

There were lots of flies.

And the peewees were annoyed that we picnicked under their tree.
