Report

Wonderful geology explanations - it is so much easier to understand when the feature is right in front of you and the explanation is clear. Rich forest flora was identified by Robert Wesley. Very definitely worth a trip into the forest as well as the meadow/old field. Photos are of David Barclay explaining a geological feature, and two unusual flora sightings - wood anemone and oak fern.
