This is a 20 acre vernial marsh / wetland,right in the middle of the city of Torrance.It's beauty is displayed to the max in early spring,right after the rainy season, when the marsh fills with water creating stunning scenic shots,and attracts a lot of waterfowl.It is home to a few foxes,skunks,toad/frogs,and many other insects.It run by the city,and maintained mainly by volunteers(friends of the Madrona Marsh).I hope you enjoy the Pictures.....
