Western pond turtles dig holes and lay their eggs in areas with little vegetation. Their eggs hatch in the fall and the baby <br />turtles remain in the nest until spring when they emerge and make their way to the pond. About the size of a quarter at <br />this stage in their development, they are vulnerable to predators including raccoons, opossum, fox, and even dogs. <br />Common predators once they hatch and leave the nest are herons, non-native bullfrogs and large mouth bass. The <br />turtles are 12 to 14 years old before they begin to reproduce. Volunteers will protect nests by securing wire over the top <br />of the nests. <br /> <br />This effort to protect and enhance the western pond turtle's nesting habitat is part of a larger restoration project underway <br />at Delta Ponds by the City of Eugene, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Bureau of Land Management. Stream Team <br />volunteers have been working to improve habitat at Delta Ponds for nearly a decade through monitoring, educational and <br />hands-on projects. For more information or to volunteer, call Lorna Baldwin, Stream Team coordinator, at 682-4850. <br /> <br />AUGUST .................................................................................................................................................... <br />08/09 M 5:30pm All Council Dinner Work Session McNutt Room <br /> ABSENT: Meisner <br />08/09 M 7:30pm All Council Meeting Council Chamber <br /> ABSENT: Meisner <br />08/11 W Noon All Council Lunch Work Session McNutt Room <br />08/31 T 4:00 pm JT Mayor's One-On-One Council Chamber <br /> <br />COUNCIL BREAK: August 12 - September 7 <br /> <br />** Denotes changes or additions to calendar <br /> <br />EUGENE CITY COUNCIL NEWSLETTER PAGE 4 <br />July 29, 2004 <br /> <br /> <br />
