Eel Monitoring in Rockport and Beyond

Have you ever wondered about the baby eels into Rockport’s Mill Pond?

Join us on SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 20TH AT 1:30 PM for an interesting presentation about the wonderous ways these 800+ baby eels instinctively make their way up the Mill Brook eel ladder and into the pond to live and grow into adults each year.

Eel monitoring volunteer, Adam Clark will share tales of how these migratory fish survive thousands of miles of travel through the ocean year after year. The count was nearly 900 baby eels in the pond last year and we are about a third of the way there today!

Adam will share about his personal experience counting the baby
eels during the years he has supported the April 1 -
October 15 annual run.

NO REGISTRATION REQUIRED, ONLY SUGGESTED.
