word of the day is Cloudburst
Spartina alterniflora. Smooth cordgrass. Stabilizes the marsh edge and anchors ribbed mussels. Seeds turn a vibrant gold in the fall- get paddling & enjoy the fall color changes 🍂
Bay heather ( sea lavender) another marsh beauty! 💜 blooms late summer
Welcome September! Fall is a gorgeous season in the bay! This marsh plant will turn a ruby red in the coming weeks. Salicornia ( pickle weed)  is edible only when green!
Perfect day for a LBT staff lunch at the field station- fresh oysters and releasing some hatchlings
