Little Treasures is a series of 5 street light pole murals (2 pictured here) featuring the natural surroundings of the Clarkson Village BIA. You can spot plants from the pollinator gardens dotting the BIA, along with many at-risk plants and animals living in the Credit River Watershed. Some of the featured species include the blue spotted Jefferson salamander, redside dace, the least bittern heron for animals and Hart’s tongue fern, swamp milkweed and Hill’s pondweed for flora.
