#MarshMadness day 22 :boost_requested:
Not many leaves on the trees yet, so marshes look less lush, but it's still a marsh!

If you can spare a few minutes for our environment, please leave a comment against the Removal of the National Environmental Policy Act. This is the "Magna Carta" of environmental laws in the US, and removing will bring total destruction. Once removed, it will be easy to decimate even our National Parks. federalregister.gov/documents/ Comments close next week.

From the right bottom corner to the middle left is marsh waters that reflect the gray sky above. There is not really any greenery in the photo due to it still being cold, so grasses and sedges are in their tan brown dormancy state. Some trees along the edge in the background are also leafless. A power line is faintly visible.

Little rat runs to little water

Three dimensional scene for today based on rat. Once again good and kind animals. Your friends! Best friends! So, it is summer. And, just after the little rain. Early morning. Little rat is living near the river. And she runs fast, while it just ends a fog. And runs fast to the river

#MarshMadness Day 5

A proper marsh! yeah some dead trees in the back but the foreground area is all proper marsh! Technically, marshes are wetlands dominated by grasses and similar herbaceous plants, whereas swamps are wetlands dominated by woody plants (trees). In case you wondered the difference...but they are both types of wetlands so I say join in the hashtag fun of Marsh Madness if you have anything somewhat fitting!

A flat wetland area surrounded by low greenery and some taller green grasses and sedges. The sky is really blue! There is a forest on a rising hill in the extreme background, and on the edge of the marsh there is some standing dead trees that provide some interesting habitat.

#MarshMadness day 2

Edraith jumps a log in a cypress swamp. This place was so mosquito-y so we couldn't stay in one place too long or they'd catch up with us! Honestly those little annoying pests are the main reason I don't like marsh areas, because I react really badly to their blood sucking with welts that take months (no joke) to heal.

A pretty scene with an arched tree overhead framing the photo Sunlight dappling through the trees. There is green carped marsh in the background, full of cypress knees which are knobby little root things sticking out of the water. Bottom right a fawn and white dog who blends in very well runs towards the camera.

I ran a one-session swamp crawl a few years ago. In places it was shallow enough to walk, but they generally went by raft. All kinds of nasty things hide under the surface - they encountered giant leeches when they stopped to investigate a tunnel of water suspended by magic.

The town they encountered was built around and on top of a spire of rock, with cranes and pullies for transporting boats up to the lowest levels.

Have you run anything cool in a swamp setting?

Maga may believe that they save taxpayer money.
No: they suck out the blood from usa for their billionaire tax cuts.
