I was wanting to go there after the rains, we use to go in and catch frogs all the time, even a baby duck once! But man, I just got caught up in moving. Nice photos. No ducks?

[Midnight Mover]

Yes, a few ducks

The crickets have been so loud lately we can hear them at our house, we are about 2 blocks away

Very cool. How about the skunks? Use to be a real problem around there.

[Midnight Mover]

haven't seen any for about 2 weeks

Have you seen any fox?

I've noticed while driving by there that the ducks have been looking strangely big there lately... And the recent drop in skunk population...

Have you seen any fox?

Naw, only foxes I've seen in Torrance have been at TOA, and even then it's almost been 4 years since the last time I've seen one.

It has been a very long time Anyone know what happened to them?

I can only guess that it's due to the marsh being so dry for so long. Lack of water and food might have driven them away.

What about TOA?

[Josh]

What about TOA?

I hear theres still a family of two or three still out there, but I haven't seen them. A lot of them were poisoned & helo pilots use to try and hit them with their skids. Other than that I don't know.
