July 20 2014 - Mountain Run Lake

Went out to Mountain Run Lake.  Had planned to go to Aquia Creek, but didn't get motivated enough to do anything until that was too late.

The green herons are here too.

Caught a bluegill and a bass on a jig:

Some confused duck appeared to regard me as a surrogate mother, following me around for about 5 minutes:

I got tired of the duck being around, so I put on some speed and paddled away.  I was afraid to look back, feeling a little bit like Lot's wife, but I pointed the camera behind me to see the fiend giving chase.  

Catching up:

The motherducker still following me, I really put on some speed and finally lost him/her.  The duck (the brown blob to the left of the boat) found another surrogate mother.  Better him than me.

I assume some misfortune befell the duck's parents, but I don't really know.
