[land shark]

Ok now I'm bummed out. I got my new camera and housing and went down to the lake and crappy vis from all the rain. Anyways i got miffed and poped it out of the housing and took a hike along the shore. thought I'd share a sign of spring with you guys. BTW anybody know what this is? aint in my Audobun keys..

Actually, it's a BLUE flower. rofl

Jim, Lake was in the same shape last weekend. I went out kayaking on Mendota all day and it was crystal clear. On my way home I stopped by to take a look at Monona and it was a dingy brown.

What camera, and housing, did you end up getting?

The flower is a Scilla (squill or bluebell), probably Scilla sibirica.

Yeah, it's one of those feared alien species we constantly hear panic about. Fortunately this one is not only pretty, it's harmless.
