This came up in my facebook news feed today – a link to a blog post about the ongoing projects of our partner group, the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge (PRNWR) (Department of Interior’s U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service):

Thought it might be of some interest to those visiting our site. Just as we are actively working on the problems of what is happening in the sandy, front side of the barrier system, project partner Nancy Pau and the PRNWR are busy studying and protecting the muddy, backbarrier (marshes, tidal flats, creeks, etc) side.

Yep, that’s right, this is a blog post point to another blog post. Enjoy!
