Observation Narrative ? Plot location: west of Kingfisher Trail near bird box "K2." This plot is situated on the opposite side of an extensive swamp from plot FLSP021. It captures an edge zone, adjacent to a low dune slope, in which ericaceous shrubs are less dense and the herb layer is dominated by dense clones of Carex striata var. brevis. Flooded by ca. 20-25 cm of water during much of the year, the habitat was completely dry at time of survey. Lichens and bryophytes occur on bases of tree trunks.
