Saying good-bye to summer at the marsh was a bit poignant for me. So much occurs here during those three short months. This place bursts with new life in the summer. Being able to observe just a fraction of what goes on in a place that is hatchery, nursery, kindergarten, and bootcamp for many wild things deepens my respect for the natural world.
Although some of our feathered friends have already left the marsh for their wintering grounds and most of the remaining ones will depart in the next few weeks, I know that the important stuff of their lives happens here at the marsh. They're just leaving for their winter holidays...
