Attack of the Azolla!

Azolla covers habitable locations within the nature preserve at Madrona Marsh as an invasive species. A thin layer of Azolla, a free-floating freshwater fern, covers the marsh with alternating hues that range from fluorescent green to dark burgundy. Ferns are some of the first plants to originate before gymnosperms and angiosperms evolved.

Field Trip Report: Malibu Coast — Oct. 5, 2019

By Read Howarth | Photographer, Grace Wang

The Malibu Coast Field Trip was a success with 12 participants at 8:00 am at Malibu Lagoon. The day got off to a great start with a Black-throated Gray Warbler adjacent to the parking lot in a sycamore tree as we gathered under the shaded ramada overlooking the lagoon.
