Southgate Pond is empty....and the golf course is changing it's landscaping
Part of Tonaquint gazebo's footing is exposed
Virgin River from I-15 bridge south..... has cut new ground. Deep channels and lots of new sand. It is easier to see across with less tamerisk.
As you have seen on the news..... the banks of the Santa Clara River (we used to call it a creek in the old days... until the reservoir was made up stream and there was a constant release of water) have been pushed back and new channels made. The habitat has changed. Mathis Park is no more. You need to come see for yourself.
However....... I heard it from a bird friend that we are still going
to have a Winter Bird Festival and celebrate that birds really are
amazing. They are still here.... and I think they could teach us
all lessons in survival.
