About the event
Join us for presentations by local experts about different aspects of the Susquehanna River! Our fourth presentation will be Tuesday, May 27th, 2025 at the Waterman Center. Join local naturalist and author Rick Marsi for For The Love of Wetlands. Drawn from the pages of Rick’s book, “For The Love Of Wetlands: A Field Journal,” this program chronicles a year in the life of Rick’s favorite Southern Tier wetland. From ice-out in late February to freeze-up in late November, this watery ecosystem boasts an impressive diversity of flora and fauna. Herons, turtles, frogs, wood ducks – the list of species dependent on local wetlands seems endless. Get to know how wetlands work and what creatures inhabit them through Rick’s educational and entertaining narrative. His magazine-quality photos illustrate the program.
