Apparently this guy is going to sleep on me all afternoon, which is fine b/c frankly my legs are achy from squatting in the mud picking up garbage while wearing waders designed for someone much taller and thinner that cut off circulation to my calves.

Spent the morning at clean-up day at the local wildlife refuge. It's full of stinging nettles and has a problem with invasive mute swans that have to be depopulated occasionally, and I couldn't help thinking there's a swampy fairy tale retelling of The Wild Swans in there somewhere.
