I’ve seen a few ~aesthetic~ photos of rock stacks in rivers recently and this is just a reminder that you are destroying habitat when you move rocks around in rivers and streams.
In addition to dragonfly nymphs, rocky river beds are home to lots of other larval invertebrates like damselflies, mayflies, water beetles, caddisflies, stoneflies, and a bunch of dipterans. Not to mention lots of fish and amphibians!
Plus large scale rock stacking can change the flow of a stream and lead to increased erosion.
When I found out calico cats are (were?) sometimes called dairymaids, I thought that was the cutest thing.
I also wondered why, which got me thinking the white markings could kinda look like milk.
Which got me thinking of cute nicknames and sayings for that.
