Field Notes

Notes:

poor baby! he was being tossed around in rough waves and was absolutely exhausted! there was a strong current from the south and we think he might have come from duck lake and been wisked out and taken about a mile north. when we found him he was really tired so we took him out of the water and let him rest for a while. he was later released in a smaller lake near where we found him.
