the river has changed a lot since my last post. water level has dropped significantly, all sorts of roots and gravel bars are exposed that once were submerged.
As summer matures, the water level drops more but, dry as it has been, i don't remember it being this low in recent year.
On another note entirely, Miss Ella has settled in and is definitely in charge of the world. Otis is still keeping his distance but (with the help of pheremone diffusers) has calmed down significantly. We have hope that, eventually, they will be companions.
