Hexed

Last night at this time I was in Baltimore, waiting for my delayed flight to leave. 

Tonight I stand in nettles, getting devoured by mosquitoes and watching hundreds of hexagenia mayflies, float, struggle, emerge, flit, fly...spinners and duns. 

I watched the water too but saw nothing to indicate that the trout were seeing what I was seeing.  

I have countless red welts that itch. 

The nettles sting on my hand burns. 

I got skunked.

Still better than an airport in Baltimore.

Never a bad sign...



birds taking full advantage

While I took this serene shot the nettles attacked!



formerly my blood
what a beautiful...bzzzzzzzzz

Returned safe and sound.
