Goose Pond Created Wetlands, 14 June 2007

Three days in a row at Goose Pond! Yesterday we came in search of insects. Today, it was "snake central" near the second and third ponds. Everywhere we stepped we could see Garter Snakes and Northern Watersnakes. They regarded us wuith suspicion, but allowed us to get great looks.
