muskrat




elkhart river, oxbow county park
i don't know if this is true or not
after all i read it at wikipedia .....
In the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Detroit, there is a longstanding dispensation allowing Catholics to consume muskrat on Ash Wednesday and the Fridays of Lent when the eating of meat, except for fish, is prohibited. Because the muskrat lives in water it is considered a fish in this case.

if the shoe fits ....

for every ailment under the sun
there is a remedy, or there is none;
if there be one, try to find it;
if there be none, never mind it.

good harbor bay, sleeping bear dunes national lakeshore
like its stork relatives, the turkey vulture
often defecates on its own legs, using the
evaporation of the water in the feces to cool
itself down.
