County Marsh Field Trip



We had a wonderful opportunity to join a DNR ecologist on a very informative field trip.
We all learned a lot about wetlands, their value, how they work, the many kinds of
animal and plant species they support, migration, and the history and purpose of the Marsh today.

Celene was enamored with the pretty colors of the horsetail grasses
