More controlled burn photos

Here are a whole bunch of photos of the Stratford Point controlled burn taken on the front lines with the CT DEEP Forestry Division by our own Conservation Biologist Twan Leenders who donned a uniform and watched the event up close. Read more about the burn, why it was needed, how it progressed, and see my photos and two HD videos in post via the link above. These shots mostly speak for themselves!
