This one was not a long one in terms of distance since am still recovering from the elbow tendinitis. Did paddle the Blue Spring Run and the area in front of the end of French Avenue. By the way, the vegetation has taken over and it is not passable anymore. Here are the pics....

Did check Snake Creek for a few minutes. Not many pic chances. Only the Red Shouldered Hawk is from that section. But coming out of it a Swallow Tailed Kite flew by searching for lunch. It was spectacular, at least for the bird and for me, not for the snake it caught.
