Join us for October's wetland wander at Stewart Pond with Colin Sayre. He has been working in the West Eugene Wetlands for 7 years. Before arriving in the Willamette Valley, Colin worked in a wide variety of habitats including the Boreal Forests of Minnesota, the Great Basin, the Central Coast of California, and the tropical dry forests of Maui. He was born, raised, and attended school in California but is now happy to call Oregon home.
We will be going on a walk through the only BLM owned Disc Golf Course in the country. The wander will be about 1.25 miles and will be both on and off trail. We will talk about recreation, ecology, the unique challenges of working on the Wilderness Urban Interface, and whatever else comes up!
*WREN's Wetland Wanders explore a different theme, conservation project, and site in the Eugene/Springfield area on the second Tuesday of the month. Please bring water, binoculars, closed-toed shoes, and dress for the weather. Walks are free and open to the public. No registration is required.
