invasive plant management around Blakeney pond-ligustrum girdling and pulling of young trees in beaver den area. With 2 other volunteers. CAPP 411

Tarantula crossing the road on the way foreshadowed good things to come, despite missing the turn into the park and taking the "scenic" route. So many amazing photo ops. Knowledgeable guides. No Merlin app needed to ID bird calls. Saw many things would have missed on my own. DId find a couple of pieces of trash to pick up on my way out of the park near the cabin. Off leash was a bit unnerving, but all dogs were well behaved. The bee balm....amazing. Inspiring. Thank you!

5 volunteers (including myself) did invasive plant work: hedge parsley, ligustrum, and tallow along the drainage at the Blakeney pond trail entrance.
