Blue River - Princess Of The Prairie

In spite of the exceptional drought the prairie ocean is experiencing, Blue River is holding up well with good flow and a rare beauty.  This morning's trip to Blue revealed she is as pretty as a porcelain-skin redheaded young lass.
Early morning on Blue.

 

Early morning catfish anglers with lines in water.


The current flow of Blue is remarkable.
Panfish were active this morning.


Placid pools.



Tremedous insect activity this morning.



Riffling water making music.



So many wonerful falls on Blue.



Contrast - arid associated cactus borders lush river.


Downstream from Hughes Crossing.



Nearby stock ponds not faring as well as Blue River.
