This Week's Denison Farm CSA Share
CSA Produce for This Week (and prior weeks)
Current Week
Week 10: August 5
Brian and I saw early Sunday morning, three otters. They dove and surfaced and gorged themselves on crayfish – lots of chirping and chomping and cracklings could be heard. As soon as I raised my phone to take a photo, those hungry otters dove under the water and off into the safety of the grassy shrubs on the opposite bank.
The only other time I saw an otter was after the flooding from Hurricane Irene. There, resting flat on its back, a large otter floated peacefully down the Tomhannock Creek that runs through our farm. This creek has been both a joy and a threat. We have experienced two devastating floods in the last 8 years on our farm. This year, due to the drought, I can walk across to the other side without getting my ankles wet. And now fearing this approaching storm, I would very much like the creek to stay within its banks!
Wishing you the very Best – Justine
