It was the fall of 1946 that I first visited Hurricane Creek, in the company of Bert Williams, a professor of botany at the University of Alabama, I was a 17-year-old freshman, just starting my serious study of ants. Hurricane Creek was the locality of my first field research. That fall I found nests of miniature army ants, and made one of my first scientific studies: the behavior of a tiny beetle (Paralimulodes) that rides on the backs of the ants.

Through the years I've wanted to see the Creek made into a nature reserve. I once urged a president of UA to acquire it for a field station. It's a thrill to see it now preserved for future generations, and I thank John Wathen and all those who brought my and their dream to realization. Edward O.
