‘There is another shore, you know

upon the other side’

Tonight Worth A Dam will present at the Friends of Marsh Creek Watershed meeting in Oakley. FOMCW is a well-respected environmental group that does remarkable things for the area. We crossed paths with them at the Flyway Fiesta and some other functions we’ve been at over the year. Turns out they are lead by a woman I went to high school with. So, go Alhambra with the conservationists! It is a great opportunity to spread the beaver gospel, because you know they will have beavers soon if they don’t already.

Along those lines, in January the local blogger “Mayor of Claycord” posted these photos of a beaver sighting in Marsh Creek. I of course sent them to Diane to inquire. She assures me that no one in their organization has seen beaver there. Was I certain it wasn’t an otter? Ohhh looking at that picture I’m ‘dam’ certain. Looks like its a great time to have an opportunity to talk about the good beavers can do in the watershed and remind them of the resources available for solving any difficulties they might cause.

Wish me luck with the epic highway 4 commute! I’ll let you now how it goes.
