Absent From the Swamp

No, we did not fall into the gold mine pit:

COLUMBIA -- Plans for a huge gold mine near Kershaw have been delayed for at least a year because of the mine's potential effect on creeks and wetlands that run through the site in Lancaster County...(read more at the Post and Courier).


We have been away at SC LIFE's Wildlife Ecology and Conservation course at the Webb Wildlife Center and then on vacation.



Tomorrow, we'll be back at the Audubon Center at Francis Beidler Forest and report on whether local rains have put water back into the swamp!
