POSTING #1:  4/29/2018 - Current site highlights:


1) Listen for a few seconds to the frogs (left), fast-forwarding to ~4:00. This casual "walk-through" also shows some seeps/streams. The "snoring" leopard frogs are worth a few seconds, along with chirping peepers.


2) Click on "Headwaters," above:  Shows some of the seeps and headwaters at the pilot harvest site. The site is actually a "forested headwater system." Nice photos of the main headwaters, too.


3) Click on Mature forests/Invasives:  See mature forest "indicator species" growing at LaDue. The page also shows invasive plants at the site entrance that could move into the currently "invasive-free" forest, if the canopy is opened.

Obligate wetland plants within the forested seeps/streams: Plenty of skunk cabbage - and a marsh marigold patch
