We go swim in le Reservoir du Poisson blanc

Dog enjoying the canoe ride.
Four of us decided to go on a day trip and went all the way to the Poison blanc reservoir. My friends were not planning on bringing their dog, since it makes it harder to surprise wildlife with a dog, but the dog decided it was coming. They left the dog with their friends but the dog decided to swim to the canoe  :) Apparently the dog likes to ride in the canoe.

Dragonfly at beaver lake
 It was 2 portages. We carried our canoes through the first one, but just walked the 2nd one, which was much longer and through a swamp. We got to paddle through 2 small beaver lakes and walk along the third one since it's too marshy to canoe through. 

At reservoir du Poisson blanc.
Yellow and black dragonfly
The beaver lakes had interesting vegetation and animals. Lots of dragonflies and birds. We tried to get photos of a big blue heron but mine turned out all fuzzy. I did better with the dragonflies both around the beaver lakes and at reservoir du poisson blanc.
