Rachel Carson's birthday is this weekend, so we decided to learn about a section of the Chesapeake watershed while having some fun. Marshy Point Nature Center sits on 500 acres off Dundee and Saltpeter Creeks which opens up to the Chesapeake Bay. Naturalists Brandi and Bill taught us much about the dense marshlands and open wetlands.
We're searching for Arrow Arum and Pickerelweed |
Immature Bald Eagle with fish |
Brandi threw a net into the shallow water and caught a Pumpkinseed fish.
Here we're learning about Marsh Mallow |
Time to head back to the dock. Thanks Marshy Point for sharing your knowledge. Keep checking our schedule for more field trips on the water.
