Wind on Bennett's Pond

A view of Bennett's Pond in Ridgefield Connecticut, hiking along the Ives Trail, on the western edge of the pond facing east. Wind ripples the surface of terraced water levels, the work of beavers. A fallen trunk, the base sculpted, chiseled by incisors, now used as an elevated platform from which rodent kings observe their domain. The single drowned maple, stands in the foreground as if thrust into the water like a javelin heaved by Paul Bunyan from towns away.
