Welcome to Project Noah. I hope your Fond du Lac Mission goes well.
Although I doubt there are to many Fond du Lac's in the world you might wish to consider adding Wisconsin to the name of this mission. I have old posts that you seem to not want, so I will wait until this winter when I am up in your area again and post some of my spottings then. If you have a change of heart and would like a few spottings that I made this spring, ( several have yet to be posted to project noah) I will gladly add them. For clarification, is a new spotting even with an older date, considered a new spotting in your mind? I would love to add some of my quality spottings to your mission it it causes your students and others to become passionate about wildlife and their natural surroundings. May your mission go well.
