So Many Dependents

It is amazing to watch all the animals that depend on this bayou of the Kankakee River. On any warm spring day herons, coots, geese, muskrat, turtle, and frogs can be seen in addition to the humans trying to scare up a fish dinner.

In the meantime, butterflies and dragonflies are waiting their turn to emerge from the depths of winter. And soon the swallows will return to sweep over the water in search of mosquito dinner.

Truly a magical place.
