The wetlands reserve on the far side of the marina ditch is a hotbed of conservation efforts, with more than 100,000 volunteers helping to clean trash, remove invasive plants and restore native plants over the years. It's a marvel of perseverance and the impacts we humans can have on the earth — both positive and negative. More than 260 bird species have been seen in the restored area, though, so it looks like the "positive" effects are winning.
