Salt marshes, by definition, are coastal areas which regularly flood and drain the land, leaving the salt, and leaving decomposing plant matter, the marsh, under water. The Snowy egret, Egretta thula, are herons distint for their very yellow feet. The Carpinteria Corbina, Menticirrhus undulatus, fish are able to feed in areas as shallow as only a few inches. They grab mouthful of sand, spitting out the sand, along with shell matter and other fish parts, out of their gills. This 230 acre park is a unique, living environment, as enjoyed here 15 August 2022.
