WATSONVILLE -- Ducks paddled by the thicket of willow, coyote brush, tule and yarrow that line Watsonville Slough. An egret rested in the shallows. Nearby, walkers strolled along a trail with leashed dogs. Karen Christensen stood on the Ohlone Parkway bridge overlooking the slough on Wednesday, taking it all in. |
