October 3, 2015 Eagle Marsh
Of the 13 who started the joint Stockbridge/Little River Wetlands Project field trip at Eagle Marsh, seven were carried away by the wind by the time we finished. If Eagle Marsh had rocks lying around, maybe those seven could have filled their pockets and stayed with us. John Winebrenner and I lead the trip
