The marsh is home to many birds plus other animals including the rare Delmarva fox squirrel.
Behind the building is a native plant garden which looked lovely even in the heat of late summer.

Hello, the visitor center at Blackwater is wonderful. It is fairly new and was well done. Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteI'd enjoy a visit to this place!
ReplyDeleteNever found a Visitor center that was not informative... I assume that fire was a controlled burn... then again, why would there be fire in a marsh?
ReplyDeleteThat is very interesting. Losing 5000 acres to rising sea level is very drastic.
ReplyDeleteThe garden looks lovely. Looks like an interesting place to visit.
ReplyDeleteThis is so interesting. Would love to visit. That butterfly sculpture is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love places like this as you learn so much. - That butterfly sculpture at the end is really pretty.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are probably loved by the little butterflies.
