Grass is Greening Up

posted in: Events, Stewardship | 0
Looking towards Bates Street. The grass is greening up.

Yesterday the Friends of Wendemuth Meadow and EQLT hosted another opportunity for community members to take a walk at Wendemuth Meadow. In the last month it’s clear that winter is finally gone and spring is on its way. Black flies are out and leaf buds are breaking. Clearly the grass is green!! A female mallard was down in the wetland joined by numerous Red-winged blackbirds.

Several groups of walkers went out around the fields.  Ann Barrett Hicks lead a group on a “Walk and Draw”.  Participants came back with sketches of the barn, trees and stone walls. There is a lot to draw out there!!
