Nature imprints itself into those who frequent it and pay attention. This past weekend, I took part in a shorebird banding and statistics gathering in a marsh along the Sandusky Bay. This process has been ongoing for 25 years and 2 of the original banders are in their late 60's, but are hoping to do this for another 25 years. They can prove change in nature by their data to those who have not paid attention. Hopefully, this "compass" will back up anecdotal memories and will help others to demand change in thinking and actions. Sunday's project was collecting strange algae from dead spots in Lake Erie and boat harbors. Any day on the Lake is a good day, but this was very unsettling. Wish you'd been there to observe!!
