The Big Dead-Fish Clean-Up
A huge thank you to the volunteers who pitched in yesterday to remove all those dead fish from the Celery…
At Shelter Island's Mashomack Preserve, I noticed several spots that looked like composting stations.
When I read the sign, I understood. Like Allendale, Shelter Island is overrun with deer.
These deer-rubbing stations (and signs) drove home the need to prevent deer ticks (and Lyme Disease).
