Home to a myriad of both residential and migrating birds, river otters, amphibians, fish, and native plants, south county sloughs are highly sensitive habitats. Beacons of beauty for birders, recreational walkers, families, and artists who visit them. The Trash Talkers September cleanup resulted in the removal of two – thirty-yard dumpsters, Two – eight-yard containers of trash, and an additional eight-yard container, plus a long bed pickup truck of metal debris left by illegal encampments. A positive outcome from the Trash Talkers collaboration including: The Department of Fish and Wildlife, City of Watsonville, Santa Cruz County Sheriffs, and Watsonville Works.
