Really quiet and serene morning. My first on trip with an alarm clock. Slept like a log last night and was visited by a big ol' owl (Strangely enough we found an owl wind chime on a site today and brought them back with us). 80% chance of rain, 0% showed up. Still calling for thunderstorms and high winds tonight. I have a funny feeling it might just pass to the N of us.
Wow, the colour of OSA is unbelievable and messing about in its islands is pretty unique too. Must remember there are some great cliffs to jump off on Muriel. Still strangely attracted to Artist L. Lots and lots of lilies but no pink ones like I saw on OSA. Can't believe how crowded it really gets down in this part of the park though!
Another highlight of the day was seeing all the frogs on the Artist L pond, biggest one had to be easily eight inches long and the smallest about three, they were everywhere!
While replacing the outhouse on one of the sites on Killarney, the kids there spotted a big snapper, got some good shots of it. Greatly aided by the fact that they were feeding it...until the Warden told them to stop.
Didn't see anything half as exciting on today's snorkel about, crayfish claws and that's about it. Still gunning to catch some fish on film or (althoug quite unlikely) a loon. Maybe I'll get my chance on Norway. Still lots of sites left on Killarney to do tomorrow. And brushing the Crack and the Norway/Sandy group of lakes. Pushing for a two night stay at camp, which will make me the first in the family to work right off the doorstep from Frying Pan Point.
Saw pink Morning Glory blooming on Artist - Muriel portage.
