... Well, that's a bit of a stretch.

Stately and elegant, blue herons are known for their long flexible necks, among other things.

They're not picky eaters. In fact, they'll eat whatever they're able to catch with their powerful bills, from fish and crustaceans to reptiles, birds and amphibians.

The blue heron inhabits marshes, swamps, riversides, beaches and ponds. In the winter, they will forage in upland areas. They nest in colonies, called rookeries.

🎶 "Muddy trails to you ... Until we meet again! 🎶 "Muddy trails to you ... Until we meet again!" 🎶

Just one of the natural occurrences on the coast this time of year.

In general, it's best to avoid walking on muddy trails during the winter, as a slippery, slick path poses a safety risk. 

If you are out walking and come across a muddy patch, resist the temptation to go around it if that means going off the established trail. That can cause damage to the surrounding vegetation and unnecessary erosion. 

When in doubt, head out in sturdy shoes (preferably ones you don't mind getting dirty) and even trekking poles, to help you keep your balance and stay safe!

It's lovely to start the week with some sunshine, letting us get outdoors for tree-planting on Boneyard Ridge. 🌲

The Necanicum Forest Habitat Reserve is a special The Necanicum Forest Habitat Reserve is a special 28-acre property where the Necanicum River meets with Klootchy Creek on the outskirts of Seaside. 

It is adjacent to Klootchy Creek County Park, which creates an uninterrupted 1.7-mile stretch of conserved Necanicum River corridor and contains more than a quarter-mile of Klootchy Creek frontage.

The property is characterized as a vibrant second-growth forest that features alder, Sitka spruce and hemlock trees. Since NCLC acquired the habitat reserve in December 2010, stewardship efforts have involved planting both trees and shrubs, including salmonberry, elderberry and Indian plum. In addition, stewardship staff and volunteers have spent time removing several species of non-native invasive plants. #myhappyplace #land4all
