Amongst Rushes & Sedges

            A wonderful day along the Nehalem River Estuary, along the north coast of Oregon. This group of biologists and friends are studying the plant community in a wetland that has been diked off from the river and the adjacent wetland for over 80 years.  They found a lot of Sedges (Carex) and Rushes (Juncus) which was a good sign - not as many invasive species as we feared due to the property having been used for cattle pasture in recent decades.

The Lower Nehalem Community Trust hopes to restore this wetland to healthy habitat for aquatic species, including salmonids and lamprey, as well as resident and migratory birds.

Wetlands are wonderful habitats that also store an incredible amount of carbon in their plant communities and sediments.
