Marsh Creek State Park
We chose Marsh Creek as one of our study areas because of the proximity to the Pottstown area. The lake at the state park is man-made as are the wetlands found in the marginal areas of the lake. We have already gathered some information from a field study already conducted. This information was found at the website of the Penn State Cooperative Wetland Center.

 

 

The above charts are assessments of the suitability of two different wetland areas at Marsh Creek for various animal species.
