When photographer Lidija Hauck returned to her Wayne County home from her residence in Florida, she found some priceless jewels of brilliant metallic green and red in her backyard. Ruby-throated hummingbirds have recently come back to the region, and several have been enjoying dining at Hauck’s feeder.
I first met Per Brandin when he was a teenager laboring alongside of a group of men known as “The Amawalk Rock Rollers” back in the mid ‘60s. That was the crew that put the term “rock rolling” into the fly fisher’s lexicon. The name came about because the only way we could move substantial rocks was by rolling them over and over and over.
