Explore the different habitats of Plum Island and learn what grows where and why. We will investigate the salt marsh, dune, and beach communities, concentrating on forty to fifty distinctive (to the botanist's eye) plant species. And if we see a bird or two, we will look at them as well. Bring a 10x hand lens, Newcomb's Wildflower Guide, lunch, water, and if you have them, binoculars.
