So, I get out of my car after work this afternoon and notice a strange-looking formation sitting on a small pine stump......







I've seen tiny ones and huge ones, but never an intermediate size like this. I plucked a few leaches off him and set him back by the woods (the closest pond is in the heart of them). It's hard to see in the pics, but I was able to see body markings for the first time on a snapper...he wasn't algae-covered. There were lightreddish and yellow stripes running back from his eyes
