The little island which has been floating around Clary Lake since it broke loose from the floating bog last spring has taken up residence on the south shore. It has been sitting off the Wilson camp at the end of Duncan Road for the last couple of months, then a couple of days ago it apparently floated (or was moved?) from off the Wilson camp shoreline to a point just west of Young’s Point. From there, high winds associated with Hurricane Lee took over. The picture above, taken from Steve & Anne Giampetruzzi’s camp yesterday afternoon, shows it on the move, driven by high winds, and headed for the south shore. The picture at left, taken late yesterday afternoon shows it at it’s new home over on the south side of the lake just east of the opening in the Fergusson field where people go swimming. It’s firmly aground now in about 4 feet of water. The lake is currently down 1/2 a foot; perhaps when the lake level rises again it will float free and continue it’s exploration of Clary Lake. Last spring the loons were quite interested in it as a potential nest site and at one point we hoped to haul it over to the loon’s traditional nesting place and anchor it, over on the north shore. Getting it back over there now would not be easy.
