Site Name | Site # | forest as well as several large oxbows containing wetland |
Seine 10 | 223 | plant communities. There are some patches of |
| disturbance (small clearings and trails) but these affect |
| less than one percent of the total area. One of the best |
| examples of terrace riverbottom forest is found here and |
| there are very few weed species present in the site. This |
| site is one of the most diverse along the Seine River and |
| contains over 80 different native plants, including sweet |
| flag, nodding trillium and Indian pipe. A number of large |
| heritage trees are found throughout the site near the |
| riverbank: five cottonwood, one elm, one oak, and two |
| willow. Deer, beaver, fox, muskrat and a variety of ducks |
| were observed during the inventory. |
