🌊 PONDS ARE ALIVE! 🌿🐟🦀 As the water warms, more things grow. Most are harmless, but some can make people and pets sick... Stay Safe: 🩹 Open wound? Skip the dip. 🟢 See green clumps, patches, scum or streaks? Give them space. 🐕 Keep children and dogs away from suspicious water. 👀 Check MV CYANO conditions—but always look at the water before going in. 🚿 After questionable contact, rinse with clean fresh water. Read more in our latest newsletter on how to keep yourself, others, and pets safe LINK IN BIO

🌿🌊 What happens when a tiny underwater plant starts disappearing? Eelgrass may look small, but it plays a HUGE role in the health of Edgartown Great Pond and the surrounding ecosystem. 💚 Take a look at this great WBZ Boston story by Jacob Wycoff @4cast4you on our team working to monitor Edgartown Great Pond eelgrass — and why it matters to all of us who love these waters. 🐚🦀🌱 👀 Watch the video and see what’s happening beneath the surface.LINK IN BIO

A few favorite moments from last weekend’s seine net event! 🐟🌊 ⭐️Thank you again to everyone who came out, explored the shoreline with us, and helped make it such a fun afternoon. We always love getting to share the incredible marine life found right here in our ponds. ⭐️Again thanks to our partners @friendsofsengekontacket and @islandspiritkayak and @masscultural for making this possible and for providing nets! 🚨If you missed this one, we’ll be back out on **August 8 from 12–2 PM** for another seine net program, this time in collaboration with the @lagoonpond at **Doug’s Cove, Lagoon Pond (Oak Bluffs)**. We hope to see some familiar faces and meet some new ones!
