FIELD TRIP: Habitat: Marina Salt Marsh to Mud Flats
DATE: Thursday, June 12, 2025
TIME: 1:00pm-3:00 pm
LEADER: Faylla Chapman
Description: You may have been on the Marina Boardwalk and wondered about all the specialized plants that you see in the estuary. This is your chance to find out more about this unique environment. Join biologist Faylla Chapman to take an in-depth look at the salt marsh and mudflat habitats. You will learn how our estuary was formed, how it is constantly changing and how the native plants here are a resource for our migratory birds as well as humans and marine mammals. We will walk the salt marsh flats and boardwalk trail (flat) for about 1 mile round trip. Restrooms are available.
