Stiles Thomas presided over a lovely ceremony at the newly renamed Pirie Mayhood Tower to dedicate a
plaque to Charlie Mayhood, a dear friend of the Celery Farm who died in 2013.
Twenty-five years ago, Charlie, Stiles and Gordon Schultze set the record for the number of species seen in one hour at the Celery Farm — a record that has never been broken.
Below are several photos from the event, including several by Deedee Burnside. Thanks, Deedee!)
