Beautiful morning in Paige Brook

Patrolled ~ 60% of Paige Brook this morning. Bright sun with little wind - just perfect. Headed towards the Channel from our house and covered grids 3674, 3673, 3712, 3713, 3671, 3711, 3751, 3752, 3753. Saw the usual "cast of characters" including bladderwort, pipewort, thread grass, pickerelweed, floating bur-reed, both yellow and white water lily, floating heart, watershield, and pondweed. There was much more native naiad than a few weeks ago as well as water marigold, a plant that always concerns me when I first see it.
