Gleaning Facebook: Stream Stomp

We had a great afternoon today along the nature trail at Armuchee Elementary School. Arrowhead, in cooperation with CRBI's Riverkeeper Amos Tuck, led a series of lessons for AES's third graders. Vivian Davis and Marilyn McLean of Arrowhead showed off our alligator, king snake, and a gopher tortoise, Amos Tuck, the "Fish Dude" helped capture some of the fauna of the little stream, including several species endemic to the Coosa River Basin, and I led a walk on the trail and demonstrated the Water Planet's water cycle.





 


Amos Tuck found several species of fish… I'll let him ID them.

Amos performs his trademark Stream Stomp to shoo critters into the net.
