Insects galore
We saw this mink while picnicing on Lake Leelanau
In the above picture (forgive my lazy stitching), you can see the Manitou islands in northern Lake Michigan. From the Leelanau website;
Chippewa Indians Legend tells us of the mother bear, Mishe Mokwa, who fled a great forest fire in Wisconsin with her two cubs. Mishe Mokwa reached the Michigan shore and climbed a steep bluff to await her cubs. The cubs, exhausted by their long swim, never reached land. The mother bear waited day after day to no avail. Finally she died. The Great Spirit Manitou marked her resting place with the Sleeping Bear Dunes and raised North and South Manitou Islands from the spot where the cubs perished.
