Swamps

You are never more than a few miles away from swamps or ponds, especially in the Northeast. The history of European settlement on this continent is about draining swamps and redirecting water.  I have ambivalent feelings about swamps. They are sources of abundant life, a primal origin of life. But they are not friendly places. Their well-being remains a barometer of the entire ecosystem.
