Flooding of the Batture

Montz, Louisiana

Gayle and I tried for more sunset pictures but things were not right for spectacular sunsets. I did get this reflection picture in the flooded area of the batture across the levee from our house. The batture is a buffer zone between the river and the levee. In some places the river may be a mile from the levee, by our house it's only about 400' at mean.

There is always that possibility but the levees are over 20' higher from that point.

Nice reflection. Do you worry about getting flooded?

You caught a little sun in the reflection. Must be nice when the river levels finally recede.
