Observation Narrative
Plot is located in an exceptionally large (150-200 acres) basin marsh, occupying a backswamp pond apparently enhanced by beavers long ago. No active beaver signs were noted, but woody succession appears to be confined to the somewhat drier edges of the marsh. The habitat was largely drawn down on the date of sampling, but probably retains standing surface water continuously in most years.
