The Ephemeral Stream


Most of the year this stream bed is dry. But it seems to come to life almost instantly when a little bit of rain falls and the water starts to run again. Despite its appearance, you would certainly hesitate to wade in or drink anything that came out of this stream. When it does rain, the water washes down from places where all sorts of things have been deposited during the dry season and the water must be filtered to drink.
