Walking east this morning I ventured to the wetland portion of our bay and I was happy to find
this water lily in full bloom.
Often thought of as an invasive plant in waterways I find them peaceful to look at and a beneficial
part of nature as they provide cover for the small fish hatchlings that need to hide from their larger brethren.
The French artist Claude Monet was particularly fascinated by water lilies and painted them often during his lifetime.
Nature always seems to offer up something to enjoy on my walks.
