Description

there used to be an small sandbar(island) here that supported lots of large birds.now the trees are about to be washed away for a 24 hour time frame during the month of January, we had a record rainfall.several people had to be rescued because they were careless or just could not see the high water.people never learn and over the years many has payed for with their life and the emergency people has to take a risk on their own

Too much rain at once, have to agree with you about the people though, I feel sorry for the wildlife but at least they usually get out the way, except for those who like water, outstanding capture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wonderful captuure and motif, Richard. A good fishing spot for the storks.Maybe a frog or two to eat. Fish or somn. Not so good for the people there i guess. More and more violent weather seems to come around. I hope no one got injured down there.

I saw on the weather channel today that you all were getting alot of rain. I know you all need the rain, but I hope it lets up some so no one else gets hurt. This is a most excellent capture. :))))) The two little ones floating in the water are they the babies of the bigger ones? Most beautiful birds. :))))) Thank you for sharing all of the beauty you see. :))))) Carry A Smile In Your Heart :))))))
