Shearness Pool, Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge, Delaware
Taken on Jul. 13, 2013
This photo shows Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge, one of the more intact areas of natural wetlands in the Middle Atlantic Coastal Plain. This flat region has a high concentration of wetlands, mostly set back slightly from the coast behind barrier islands, and/or draining into large estuaries and bays. Drier ground, in the background, is largely forested.
