Muddy River 04/12/09, 12 noon.

Just upstream from where I take most of these pictures, cormorants perch along Leverett Pond.






Upstream from Leverett Pond the Muddy is considerably less muddy.


A couple years ago there was a reconstruction project which, among other things, put biodegradable booms up to keep the bank from eroding. Now these booms have a thick growth of moss.


And mushrooms!


Up on the park side: three rocks.


In the spring further upstream, the rocks are covered in warm mossy coats.


A constant flow of cold but nourishing spring water!
