Wakarusa Wetlands wood ducks and no water

Posted on August 22, 2011 by admin

When I visited last week, there was not a lot of water. I so hope that has changed a bit by now. I have my suspicions that water is being diverted from portions of the Wetlands targeted for destruction to build the SLT. I know it has been a dry, hot summer, but it has never looked like this.

This area is usually completely covered by water.

Moon and sun

Last week, I spent an amazing morning at the Wakarusa Wetlands. The heat had broken and it was almost chilly out there. The moon and the sunrise were amazing. Click on pictures to enlarge.

Great blue heron and yellow-crowned night heron

I love the great blue herons, but it was a real treat to see the yellow-crowned night heron and offspring at the Wakarusa Wetlands. Save it. Don’t pave it. Click on pictures to enlarge.

Robins and berries

The Wakarusa Wetlands were rowdy with robins a few weeks ago. I meant to upload these pics earlier. I am a bit behind in the updates again. Click on pictures to enlarge.

More Wakarusa Wetlands magic

Posted on July 2, 2011 by admin

Little specks of yellow dot the fields and the green is lush and fragrant. Dragonflies are everywhere. Thousands of voices sing. On this morning, I spotted deer, a host of blackbirds, grackles, robins, sparrows, catbirds, indigo buntings, painted buntings, northern cardinals, goldfinches, a huge diversity of frogs, a dickcissel singing loudly, wood ducks, turtles (snappers and painted), geese, great egrets, great blue herons, cattle egrets, little blue herons, mink, muskrats, and the hundreds more. Please help save the Wetlands. Click on pictures to enlarge.

Little blue herons

There are many little blue herons at the Wakarusa Wetlands. Stop by and see the rich diversity of this magical place. Save it, don’t pave it! http://www.facebook.com/wetlandspreservationorganization?ref=ts

I know I say this every summer, but they are just so elegant! Click on pictures to enlarge.

Lone pelican

Posted on June 13, 2011 by admin

There has been a lone pelican hanging out at the Wakarusa Wetlands recently. I hope he is okay. I’m guessing he is a young one who was blown off course during one of the many recent storms and is resting here for a while. I wish him the best on the rest of his journey.
