Last Saturday was an awesome day to plant trees for beavers. Don’t believe me? Just check out the exccellent photos wildlife photographer Suzi Eszterhas sent me yesterday.
Isn’t that gorgeous? Apparently her editor at Ranger Rick loved them. And theoretically the beaver article will run either June or July of 2017. Obviously Martinez children don’t just know how to plant trees. They know how to tend them too.
Our heroes were Ethan, Brittney, Alana and April. Didn’t they do a fantastic job? Ethan’s dad is a biologist and was very excited about how comfortable he looked with a shovel. Brittney’s mom said she had just helped all day in the garden so she was not afraid to get dirty. And Alana just sent her application to be a junior docent at Lindsey Wildlife which I was honored to write a recommendation for. And you probably recognize April from her spirited career as a documentary critic.
They are truly the face of tomorrow’s watersheds.
