Since our little swamp “ponds” don’t move much, organic oils float up and rainbow when the sun hits at the right angle. BTW, the birds are brozne. :)

    If you’re ever up Huntsville way, check out Beaver Dam Swamp. It’s just off I-565, boardwalk out over a tupelo swamp. Absolutely beautiful, eerie.

    Spent a lot of time squirrel hunting in the Wheeler Wildlife Refuge swamps. Found a spot where I could watch the whooping cranes.

      I drive all through AL, but never make it that far north.

      Reminds me, there’s a public trail just outside the tiny Navy base down the road. Need to go check on the beaver dams.
