A blown turbo on our rental equipment set us back on day two of our main project, but the crew railed to take advantage of the late summer low water and opened up a new ground for the birds.
The crew work one long hot day pushing back over growth, mowing Phragmites and opening up water flow at Kingfisher wetlands. We used the excess dirt and brush to build future nesting islands.
The crews mowed Phragmites and dead willow opening up more land for wildlife to use and reducing fire risk. Fixed the trails damaged from all the rain and flooding and the beaver damaged flashboard riser.
Our President Troy Burgess and Vic. President Alan Petersen taught a class of sixth graders at Capstone Classic Academy about waterfowl, their habitat and WW nest box program.
The crew supported by several volunteers tackled the challenges and got all the nest boxes re-thatched at Ogden Bay this year. This year marks five years of ongoing maintenance of these nest structures.
