The Mysterious Monster March: The Adventure Continues
a picture book that I am currently working on. :-)

"Dawn breaks and excitement grows.
Everyone is eager to continue on their adventure.
A tasty breakfast of sweet, sticky Hickleberries
makes them all feel very brave.

Later that day, they arrive at the edge of a vast lake.
The joyful monsters jump in with wild howls of glee!
Meenu cautiously steps onto a leaf to float across.
He has never been in water before."

On a tiny orange leaf, sits a small monster as he floats across large, dark lake. A strange swimming creature approaches from behind, causing him to become slightly alarmed. Below the waterline, multiple fish and monsters move at different speeds through the murky depths.

Here is a globular springtail (around 2 or 3mm in size) floating on water and cleaning themselves with a water droplet. They use the water droplet to clean but also to moisten their skin as a way to retain water. As they are so small, losing too much water from their body is a danger. They are often found in damp and moist environments. This one was filmed in my garden a couple of days ago on a barrel which had filmed with rainwater.

Bobbing Boat

The water level in the canal dropped a bit overnight. I realised this when I noticed the boat was listing away from the bank, and only rocking along one axis instead of the usual three.

Closest to the bank, the bottom of the boat was touching ground, underwater.

My neighbour helped me refloat, pushing out the boat while I leaned and swung on the far gunnel to make the boat lift clear of the underwater ground.
