Marion Natural History Museum186 viewsThe Marion Natural History Museum's July Coastal Exploration group had a fun week exploring some of Marion's natural areas. We examined green frog tadpoles and a frog metamorphosis, were invited to explore Ram Island, visited the donkeys and learned about filter feeders, including some of the largest ones like whales. We explored a salt marsh, cleaned up a rocky beach at Planting Island and removed the plastic waste from the wrack line before it entered or reentered the bay. Photo courtesy of Elizabeth Leid

Cal Currier186 viewsBill Saltonstall, right, and grandson Cal Currier may reside on opposite coasts, but the California-raised Currier has made many visits to his extended family in Marion, and motivation to follow in the footsteps of his father James and his grandfather led him to take a bold step this year, crossing the Atlantic on a sailboat all by himself.
