Talked with on-site biologist yesterday morning. She indicated that the reeds are mowed every year for flood control purposes. Indicated that she had seen the Bittern and Egrets following the disturbance of the mower taking advantage of feeding opportunity. > On Oct 21, 2025, at 11:12 AM, Melissa Johnson via groups.io <mitzimelissa...> wrote: > > FYI; more mowing today at SWPCP landfill area -all reeds in the slough where Bittern had been seen are gone or soon will be. > Sent from iPhone >>> >>> >>> >>> >>> >>> >> >> >> >> >> > > > > > > <image2.jpeg> -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
