Twenty minutes after putting in at Moose River #16 we coasted by this whitetail. It was obviously terrified that we were so close--it almost stopped chewing its breakfast as we went by.

I am pretty sure LTs photo is that of the "Lac" Ness monster. Many a visitor has returned from the Lac La Croix with stories of a sighting a large humped beast. Old Nessycroix, as the Native Americans have called it, only emerges for seconds at a time, and this is indeed a rare photo of said prehistoric beast.

This pic was taken in May on a stream flowing near Brent Lake in the Q by my wife.
I believe it might be a Boreal Chorus Frog, but hard to tell from limited amount showing in the pic. Any other guesses?

Just a question.... where do you guys see this monster in my picture?
EDIT Is this it I went back and cropped the photo.

Wildlife photos have never been my strong suit. Here's Mr Beaver eating on Crab Lake, September 2006.

Crooked Lake Swimming Bear
Saw this guy on crooked lake -- the photo's zoomed in quite a bit.. I was torn between keeping my distance and paddling closer for a better shot! What's more, the bear was swimming from an island where we'd camped the previous year...

LT went to the Bannock School of Photography. I used to be a door-to-door camera salesman selling cameras in small Iowa communities so their schools could start photography clubs. :-)
Oh you got trouble my friends
Right here in River City
and that starts with "T"
and rhymes with "C"
which stands for camera!
:-) :-) :-)

LIS North, last week. After this photo the moose continued to wade out into the river. When he got about 20 feet away I figured it was time to start back padddling.

I am not an expert, but I think that is a mink or an ermin. Not an otter.

Here is a mother loon and her chick taken on lake four last summer. It's kinda blurry since it was raining. Also since I took it point and shoot it's very small. :(
