creek brook wetlands destruction

This particular gallery of images chronicles the Lower Marsh as it existeted, the work which was done by the City of Haverhill and how it looks today as a field, rather than a wetlands.

The final image is a shot of the willow trees at the upper marsh, showing the water level drop which has occured in a 24 hour period since the city has now "cleaned the culvert" there as well.

In my opinion, this is all due to the fact that they have now tied all of the drainage from the denuded hillside which is the site of the new Lowes and Target stores.

I Denise Sheehan have spent many of hours off of computer drive feeding the geese and other various birds at this location. I have brought many of people with me to see the beauty that lays all around this area. I am a mother of three and all of my children have gone with me to view the many animals that live there. We have been able to hand feed the baby geese. On one of my last trips there we got to see a snapping turtle sun bathing in the road. I have been going to this spot since 1999 when i began working at the local dealership there. When i first started going there, there was no other building around and it was a very nice place to spend my lunch hour. I am very greatfull for all you are doing. I would like to thank you for all your efforts in perserving this area. I would like to offer my help to you.
