Nearly 50% of endangered or threatened fish, wildlife and plants are at risk due to #InvasiveSpecies.
Good news - you can keep our natural spaces healthy with easy steps like cleaning your gear before leaving or arriving at a park or water. tinyurl.com/58pwk6cf #PlayCleanGo

I’ve been doing a lot of traveling lately & mom has been tired, so haven’t been updating here much. But I did want to let everyone know that I checked another @MiStateParks off my list. Visited Harrisville State Park on 5/10:

Birding on Belle Isle is more challenging with scant #GreatLakes ice cover, @MichiganDNR Detroit educator said, but Sunday's tour group still caught a terrific scene.
