Slackwater Darter Field Day

In May a group of FRCA volunteers hit the upper reaches of the Flint River watershed to look for suitable habitat for Slackwater darters. To further assess the habitat, we took a seine net to try to net some species associated with Slackwater Darters. We found some interesting species.

Here are some pictures from the outing:
