Surveys on the Duck River

This summer has certainly been odd, but we were finally able to get out and conduct our quantitative surveys on the Duck River in Tennessee. The Duck River has an incredibly diverse freshwater mussel fauna and it was incredible seeing so many species. We knocked out 4 sites over a 4 day period with collaboration with Tennessee Wildlife Resources and Conservation and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service partners! This was complemented by camping at Henry Horton State Park. It was quite the week!
