The refuge is open. The toilets are clean and supplied. The rain was horizonal for a while.
The orchard has ripe apples and pears that are gorgeous and for the animals! There were prints all around and small green frogs (no costumes). The mudflats were in their full glory. Herons, ducks and shrub birds were around. The bird bounty certainly changes over the course of the year.
We are curious to see what this area will look like in 25 - 75 years. There isn't a lot of woody material being introduced from the river/Sound so what will stabilize the mud?
