Better water quality, habitat, investments have made Saginaw Bay the world's greatest fishery... and it is not going unnoticed on the national stage for professional fishing. @RouteBayCity secondwavemedia.com/baycity/featur…
“The extraordinary power of flowing water makes it our planet’s greatest architect. Freshwater not only shapes the land, but life itself – it is the most precious ingredient for life on Earth.” — Sir David Attenborough
Although it was a little chilly and wet, I had a fun time with the Friends of the Shiawassee River doing some volunteer water quality sampling at the site of the former Shiatown dam. The river is healthier, safer, and prettier without the concrete.
How is a river born? Where does it come from? For Michigan's longest river, the Grand, part of its headwaters can be found at the Grand River Fen Preserve—350+ acres of high-quality habitat just south of Jackson. nature.ly/3N8v1iX

First allium tricoccum (ramps) of the season have emerged from the forest floor here along my beloved #ShiawaseeRiver
My beloved #ShiawasseeRiver is flooding after a cold spring with lots of rain. Floodplains being replenished and sewer systems overflowing with stormwater.

“This is a Detroit story. It speaks to the value of letting things flower.”
Rare butterfly spotted in Detroit park, ‘first in decades’ Regal fritillaries were once more common in Michigan. But with so much habitat loss, it is considered a vulnerable species. via @robertgstreit planetdetroit.org/2023/03/rare-b…
Do you know a farmer practicing good conservation in the Shiawassee or Saginaw watershed?
“A wetland acre provides $248 worth of water purification, $2,270 worth of water storage and $1,155 worth of erosion prevention.”
TNC's John Ketzenberger makes a strong argument for protecting Indiana wetlands! heraldtimesonline.com/story/opinion/… via @theheraldtimes
Curwood Castle on my beloved #ShiawasseeRiver turns 100 today. James Oliver Curwood was one of Michigan’s first conservationists. Read my account of the literary thread that runs from him to @greatlakescribe and @JerryDennis_ tom4tnc.blog/2012/02/09/cur…
Finally!
GOOD NEWS: @EPA proposed national drinking water standards for six toxic PFAS chemicals 🎉 These cancer-causing chemicals contaminate our drinking water, fish, and wildlife — posing a threat to our health. With these proposed standards, communities nationwide will be protected.
“Now is the time to recognize women not only as stakeholders, but as agents of change”
Putting women in positions of conservation leadership can literally change the world. 🙌 In the Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) reached at COP15, there’s a target that reflects the reality of gender equity being imperative to achieving the goals of GBF.nature.ly/42hMgFk
Today, I heard the first red-winged blackbird of the season commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Agel…
These large birds prefer open habitats and have a loud, trumpeting call with a very unique tone. Can you name the species? Leave your answers in the comments below. Photo: Marvin De Jong/USFWS
“Almost without exception, where dams have been removed, you see populations bounce back, often much more quickly than anyone anticipated.” bit.ly/30XNvKG
