Botany Club Explores Abita Creek Swamp

D. Rutherford, Laborde, Luke, King, Sammy L

A group of six people stands in a dense, muddy forest area with tall trees and scattered underbrush. From left to right: a person in a light blue shirt and olive pants holds a large water bottle and wears a cap; next to them, a person with long hair in a pinkish shirt and brown pants smiles brightly; the person in the center wears a bright red T-shirt and gray shorts; to their right is a person in overalls and a gray T-shirt, with a water bottle clipped to their belt; next is someone in a plaid shirt, tan pants, and a wide-brimmed hat with hands on hips; finally, a person in a black tank top, beige cargo pants, and red cap stands with one hand on a tree. The background is full of trees and green foliage, and the ground appears wet and muddy.
