Crayfish Hole
I can't tell you for sure when I took this picture. The computer said 2004. But that could be wrong.

@tryingtosurvive2024 what's a crayfish?? Why does it have a hole?? Does it not swim around with the other fishies??
@Tinywhisper11 Good questions.
From the internet:
"Crayfish[a] are freshwater crustaceans belonging to the infraorder Astacidea, which also contains lobsters. Taxonomically, they are members of the superfamilies Astacoidea and Parastacoidea. They breathe through feather-like gills. Some species are found in brooks and streams, where fresh water is running, while others thrive in swamps, ditches, and paddy fields. Most crayfish cannot tolerate polluted water, although some species, such as Procambarus clarkii, are hardier. Crayfish feed on animals and plants, either living or decomposing, and detritus.[1]"
"Crayfish dig holes, also called burrows, primarily to provide a safe refuge from predators, a place to molt and rest, and most importantly, to access water for breathing through their gills, as they need to stay moist even when out of the water; these burrows often reach the water table to ensure a consistent water supply throughout changing conditions. "
@tryingtosurvive2024 ewwww! They look so gross 😝
@Tinywhisper11 Yeah, I guess. God created them. Anyways the live next to our pond. That is where those holes are, and they also live in our creeks. 💙
@tryingtosurvive2024
They probably small or decomposing animals righ,? If they leave bite marks like fleas to like dogs and such.. probably make mammals need antibiotics, like fleas ta.
@tryingtosurvive2024
Does it say anything about the PH levels of the water? There's a lot of wood debris, in the area I went too and like I think it's high in salt and acid I assume. I don't think animals go in this place so.. the acid is probably not urine mixture w. It.
@tryingtosurvive2024
I think I encountered a cousin in the same family.. They live in marshy/muddy areas too.

Ugh.. when I use my camera the date gets reset to like the beginning of whenever the company made the camera. I wouldn't know the dates either.
@GreenEasil00 Whenever I store the cameras without the batteries in them they lose the date and time. I got to reset that every time. Most of the time I didn't care. Soon after taking the picture I would create a folder with label and year on it. Then I would drag those files into it. Some of my earliest pictures I didn't do that so much.
In my earliest days, I didn't have any plans on keeping the pictures. I was using them as a way to make connections with people online. I figured they would here today and gone tomorrow. Here I am, 22 years later sharing some of the same pictures I took way back.
