Jug Bay’s Emory Waters Nature Preserve 
  
Join a Jug Bay Volunteer Naturalist Citizen Science program to see how the fish community in a tidal freshwater marsh reflects the changing tides and discover Jug Bay Wetlands Sanctuary’s River Farm property. The seine net survey begins at 8 am to capture low tide fish. After that we will launch kayaks and paddle along the shore and marsh edges of the Patuxent River looking for beavers, muskrats, osprey, bald eagles, red-winged blackbirds, ducks, and many other animals. We will return to River Farm for the high tide survey.
