Day 12: You can't blame us for getting a little goofy after the job was done. After all, it doesn't happen very often that you leave home for a work party under a forecast of "heavy rain and strong, gusty winds" only to arrive at the job site under blue skies and warm temperatures. Oh, the storm came in as predicted, but by the time it arrived, I was sitting here processing the photos from the event.
This little corner of Nisqually Land Trust property is now ready to be planted with native species. The little Scotch broom which remains will soon be shaded out by snowberry, twinberry, native willows and a variety of other trees and shrubs scheduled to go in the ground in November. Our efforts today met with the approval of a Chickadee overseer whose cheerful commentary was as welcome as the sunshine. He seemed to know we were working hard to restore his habitat.
