Friend of Herring River

THE AMAZING JOURNEY OF HERRING FRY FROM POND TO OCEAN

led by Barbara Brennessel

Saturday, November 11, 10:00 am - 12:00 pm, 15 people max.

(Rain Date: Sunday, November 12th, 1:00-3:00 pm)

Meet at the Gull Pond parking lot, Wellfleet

This 2-hour walk will trace the beginning of the journey taken by river herring fry as they leave Gull Pond and move down the Herring River towards Wellfleet Harbor, Cape Cod Bay, and eventually the Gulf of Maine. After hatching in the spring, the young fish have spent the summer maturing in the freshwater kettle ponds and are now ready to transition to their adult life in the ocean.
