New Rhythm

photo by Greg Hofmann

5/9/2005: The last time we looked at Estrada Marsh, it was a very different scene. Back in 2003 it was dry most of the year, leveed off from the waters of the slough. In the rainy season it became a brackish marsh. But several months ago a gap eroded in the levee, and now the marsh is subject once again to (very muted) tidal flow, adding a new overlay of rhythms to that of the yearly rains.
