Description
Thank you everyone, for all the great comments!
Here is one of the two closeup images I wanted to share.
Wendy thought he looked like Nessie!
For those who haven't seen the previous post. We took our dogs to a large fenced in dog park. The green stuff is NOT slimey! It's "Duckweed": The family of duckweeds (botanically, the Lemnaceae) are the smallest flowering plants. These plants grow floating in still or slow-moving fresh water around the globe, except in the coldest regions. The growth of these high-protein plants can be extremely rapid. Lemna is one of the best known of this group and has been the subject of much research. Researchers are using these plants to study basic plant development, plant biochemistry, photosynthesis, the toxicity of hazardous substances, and much more. Genetic engineers are cloning duckweed genes and modifying duckweeds to inexpensively produce pharmaceuticals. Environmental scientists are using duckweeds to remove unwanted substances from water. Aquaculturalists find them an inexpensive feed source for fish farming. Instead of getting rid of your duckweeds, think instead of how they are cleaning your water. Apparently Duck Weed is one of natures anitoxidents, it cleans bodies of water, and is a good thing. It rinsed right off Yukon.
Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend!
Try to enjoy the ol'Monday!

I love how enthusiastic Yukon is! What a great dog! :-) I described that green stuff to someone yesterday, and he immediately said "oh, it's duckweed." I didn't take botany class in high school in order to save plant-ish lives. lol.
AW it's always great to see your dog having so much fun,isn't it?.Their happiness is contageous!Another fun image Eric.Glad you shared it.

Great capture!!! I love to see the water in movement and ur doggy's expression is fantastic! Man, he looks like a wolf!! What a beauty!
But take care with little kids who think they can walk over the green duckweeds! Nature provides many good things the human race did not fathom, there's still so much to be discovered! Fantastic work, Eric!

Nice to see an happy dog. Great capture.
Such stunning eyes and contrast between the white fur (would have to be pure) and the green duckweeds. Good move too.
