While, I suspect, most of us were still sleeping, Pete Givan and Adele O’Dowd were out in Norwood Park leading a bird walk to do a New Year’s Day count and introducing participants to the trees in the Park.
After cancelling once because of the bitter cold, the LFWA stream team was out monitoring the Little Falls Branch last week, February 22. The weather cooperated - sunny and 41 degrees and the team was able to complete the task. They were excited to find a crane fly larva and a narrow winged damsel fly larva along with 6 other species despite the high salt levels seen this winter.
