I walked down by the local creek the other afternoon. The recent rains have increased flow rates and the water in Cherry Creek is tea like from all the fallen leaves. Downstream about 75 feet I notice a disturbance in the water but don't see anything. Then I see something moving upstream on the surface of the water like a big fish. It gets a little closer then I realize it must be an otter swimming vigorously in my direction! It wasn't an otter but an American Mink (Mustela vision). It's in the weasel family and is almost as aquatic as an otter and a nocturnal hunter. They eat voles, frogs, crayfish, waterfowl and their eggs, mice, rabbits, snakes, and aquatic invertebrates.

It got to within about 6 feet of where I stood backlit with camera on the monopod, it looked up at me then swam a little circle around a rock then scurried out of the water on the opposite bank and darted under a fallen log! Wow, glad I had the long lens! Pinch me and I do believe in luck. Mendocino County, North California U.S.A.

We went to the Ureweras but it was shut! The great walk was closed due to track damage from the snow storm, the camp ground turned us away and the visitor centre wasn't open for 3 days. So we explored a lot of the smaller tracks, streams and trap lines looking for interesting forest to photograph. We came across this scene right near the end of our trip. I was pretty excited! I haven't worked through all the comps yet from this place but will post a couple more probably

Well worth a look in lightbox.

Nothing spectacular but I like the colours and the distant sunlight....The stream flowing from Dry Cove Bottom near Wetherlam.

Much of La Vallée de Ferney, in Mauritius, consists of rolling hills and grassland. However, there is also a substantial area of indigenous rainforest, containing streams such as this one.

Heute möchte ich ein weiteres Bild von dem kleinen Ausflug zeigen..

Man kann hier schön die Nuancen des fliessenden Wassers erkennen, der Hauptstrom ist schnell, aber an den seichteren Stellen entstanden immer wieder kleine Strudel und andere interessante Details. Es war etwas schade, dass es so viel geregnet hat, sodass der Fluss mehr Wasser als sonst führte.. auf der anderen Seite wären sonst einige Bilder nicht so entstanden..

Previously covered by an elevated highway, the Cheonggyecheon stream was recovered in 2005 and has become an atraction for locals as well as tourists since.
