Rodman Dam 2003

Here are the photos I took on the Rodman Dam field trip. We had a GREAT turn out and an awesome time! Shame on those of you who didn't make it. Seriously, though, it is truely a fun trip that you will want to go on next year. These are the first 15 photos so far. I will get the rest up within the next day or so.

Thanks to all who attended, especially Dr. Rossi and Greg Lepera for assistence identifying a few of the critters found. We found several crawfish snakes, several species of sirens, an amphiuma, newts, several species of frogs in various stages, crawfish, and water bugs. During the walk in Deep Creek, we even saw a cooter laying eggs right in front of us. Floyd brough his air boat and gave many rides. Rick also had his canoe which provided a more tranquil ride. I tried to get everyone's picture. I apologize if I didn't.
