I've been on a huge mud puppy/siren/amphiuma kick recently. Ironic since this is also prime weather for our little mudpup friends!
I nabbed that red maple lead right before the colour change, and I was super surprised to find it still retaining the original colours that I found it in! Nature is awesome, except for the fact that dried pond cypress branchlets simply do not hold together well. Boo.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I've got promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep...

More like manatees have a very mudpuppy-looking snout, seeing as how mudpups were around before our sea cow friends!
