As part of Riverfest Summer, sponsored by the Sudbury, Assabet, & Concord Wild & Scenic River Stewardship Council, Former SVT Executive Director Ron McAdow will give an illustrated presentation featuring wildlife from Well Meadow, the pristine wetland off Fairhaven Bay on the Sudbury River. Well Meadow was a frequent destination for Henry David Thoreau. McAdow’s trail camera monitors traffic on a beaver dam that crosses the swamp. We’ll see images and videos of the wide variety of animals that use this bridge: mink, otter, bobcat, and many other species. Thoreau kept an appreciative eye on Well Meadow vegetation—we’ll hear his observations about some of the plants that anchor this rich natural community.
