Coot and Tree
This is a reservoir for the town of Kanab, Utah. They were rather thrilled after several years below normal rain and snow that in the spring of 2023 the reservoir was overflowing. It made for an interesting walk around the lake where in places the trail went through a couple of feet of water so you had to make a detour on higher ground. The sun was just beginning to set in the cold sky as we threaded our way around the two mile trail. I liked this tree set apart from the other trees with a coot swimming around its trunk well away from the other coots on the lake. I wonder what they were saying to each other as fellow loners.
