Visiting a Salt Pond

Photos of/by Muffy Aldrich
Best time to visit the Rachel Carson Salt Pond Preserve?  Dead low tide and before the tourists arrive.

    There is a very nice nature preserve in her name near Wells, ME too.

    My boys used to enjoy finding all sorts of little creatures in that salt pond...baby lobsters, anemones, sea cucumbers, urchins and clambering about on the very slippery rocks. "Edge of the Sea" is my favorite Carson book.

    Rachel Carson deserves much more credit for her brave work in conservation and scientific caution, commonly known as "sustainability". The pioneering work "Silent Spring" remains a notable and important accomplishment.
