Commentary

Dear Carla and the South Albany HS AP Bio Class,

Thanks so much for your great work finding, removing, and reporting English holly at the Simpson trail. Your efforts are helping prevent further spread of invasive species, and helping to maintain the diversity of native plant and animals that are important to riparian ecosystem.

Please keep up the great work and keep on reporting invasive species!

Thanks,
Tania
