November 3 Discussion

On November 3 we'll continue the discussion of land use characteristics, work through a case study simulation, and then discuss point source and non-point source impacts.

We'll also focus a little more closely on Four Mile Run, and then as time allows, explore physical characteristics of watersheds.

Next week (November 10), we'll explore watershed stewardship and advocacy.

Here is one example of the kinds of birds I see at times along this stretch of Four Mile Run; I took this picture of three Great Egrets (and some trash) on September 7 of this year:
