Field season is underway in the sc̓e:ɬxʷəy̓əm* Foodlands Corridor, and this #FoodlandsFriday, we are sharing some photo highlights from monitoring work.
Over the winter months, the restored off-channel habitat has been home to some of the largest coho we’ve observed on site to date. At a potential new site, monitoring revealed a long-toed salamander, a rough-skinned newt, and a lot of northwestern salamanders. The team and landholder were excited to see the diversity of amphibians, a reminder that riparian restoration supports many species.
