Herman Park: Hermania and Billfork 01

Shots from the mouth of TILE Creek, or at least where it enters Drink Lake. I believe I may study this delta region each spring to see what turns up.

A large tree has fallen across the fence surrounding Drink Lake near where TILE Creek dumps its waters.

Yellow flowers found on two lumps (“islands”) within TILE Creek here. This appears to be coltsfoot.*

Fence at western end of Drink Lake, already blog famous for the Boris Spider Phenomenon from Spring 2012. There’s the newly fallen tree again in the foreground.

Drink Lake Delta.

On the way to Pencilinsula, whose mountain laurel and rhododendron underbrush has grown so thick as to basically block access to the lake here, and the also blog famous Point Rock. But that’s okay — maybe the land needs to heal from past beaver ravages (SEE: Quadrobeavs).

You can see the TILE Creek bed extending well into Drink Lake, which means the lake is considerably shallower at times.

    The face in the first picture is bothering me. Who is that?

      dated March 23 herman and billfork park 01. Shots from the mouth of TILE Creek,….. The face is a rock with eyes in the first picture.

      • Hmm… I like the photo but I can’t see a particular face. It comes from a lake near my house where a particular creek I favor enters it. Curious to see what you see. Can you somehow take the photo and circle the face or indicate it? Thanks.
