Here's a close-up of a floating nest of Snakehead eggs. Snakeheads lay their eggs among floating plants to help them stay put, then they guard them. If you enlarge the image you can see that there is a second layer of eggs under the top layer. Huntley Meadows is a great natural area. It is sad to see this pest fish in its waters. If I had had a gigging pole I'd have been sorely tempted to take care of that adult.

Location: Huntley Meadows Park, Fairfax County, VA
