Yesterday I paddled from the Old Brandon Road bridge to the low water dam (and back). This is the small swamp just off the flood control structure/channel behind the YMCA. There are quite a few of these along the Pearl. The one just to the south had a couple of alligators lounging around on an island.
This is a mulberry tree on the west end of Deer Island. A few fish crows flew off and came right back as we were leaving with stained fingers and mouths.
This little copse of trees is made up of a mulberry and hackberry trees which shows that the island was not originally a barrier island, but a ridge that was once part of the mainland and has been slowly separated by sea level rise.

The offerings of the stinky Conoco on State Street. You can’t walk into this place without smelling like a potato log for the rest of the day.
