Tansy visits Kiixin again 3
House Post and sign post
Another day at the site…Tansy and her companions recorded flora and fauna of the site…changes in both plant and animal health and distribution occur when there are systemic changes in weather and climate. Keeping track of these is an important indicator. Plant cover can help minimise erosion, but can also cause damage to the site if blowdowns occur during big storms, or when smaller plants use the posts and beams as nurse logs.

Tansy visits Kiixin again
Rain
Tansy and Favourite Photographer have been trying to visit Kiixin again. Good records exist going back several decades, and the crew was there to do an update using new recording methods. The goal is to get a sense of how climate change is affecting this archaeological village site, but the last two attempts to visit were cancelled because of bad storms…a little rain fell on the way out there…
