There's been a creature thrashing around in our cove off Crab Creek.  It's like a cul de sac here, and this beast splashes around, making a big ruckus near the shore and under docks.  I'd thought it was otters -- same them in France.  But today I saw a long serpent-like body just above the surface.  I didn't see the head.  It's been suggested that it's a snakehead, but this is more like a snake body.  Will try to get a photo.

Beautiful morning from Crab Creek into LIttle Aberdeen.  Light breeze but high tide.
