Colleague Rob Crowley, associate director of philanthropy for the Conservancy, took these photos on a trip last week to
Silver Creek Preserve.
Spring is a beautiful time to visit the preserve. Snow still highlights the surrounding mountains, and you'll hear a raucous chorus of marsh wrens, yell0w-headed blackbirds and sandhill cranes. Mule deer, elk and even
moose are visible in the fields. Large flocks of
waterfowl rest in the wetlands.
While fishing season is still over a month away, you can still hike, canoe, bird, photograph or just enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Silver Creek is open every day of the year, but you must
sign in at the visitor center before visiting. There's no admission charge, but please consider
donating to enable The Nature Conservancy to continue to
protect places like Silver Creek.

I have fished it for years - but quit when it became too popular and there were more fishermen than fish there. I don't need to catch fish, but I want to be a little to myself.
