Cat’s Paw Prairie 2014

[To see photos and stories of this prairie in other years, go to the links on the main Cat’s Paw Prairie page.]

Brush – especially small aspens – is starting to creep into the edge of the prairie on the west side.  Mike mowed some of it in the fall, but had to mow around fallen trees.  That’s one of the projects we’ll have to do soon – clear away some of those fallen trees.
