Noticed these beauties while paddling back from Franks Falls in Temagami Ontario. I was amazed at how big they were.

Really? These ones didn't make a noise. They must have been as shocked to see me as I was them. There aren't too many people when you are that far North in Ontario.

That was the first time I had ever seen them. They were so calm and beautiful in a prehistoric kind of way.
