Eastern Neck National Wildlife Refuge
November 25th, 2007 at 02:19 pm by Alan in The LandEstablished in December 1962, the Eastern Neck National Wildlife Refuge is a 2,285-acre island that serves as a major feeding and nesting ground for thousands of migratory and wintering waterfowl especially black duck. The refuge is also home to the endangered Delmarva fox squirrel and the threatened bald eagle. Management for the fox squirrel includes forest and cropland management, running a cooperative farming program and keeping the deer in check.
Nearly six miles of roads and trails are open to visitors most of the year. Four wildlife trails and a handicapped accessible boardwalk and observation tower are available for those wishing to observe the varied habitats of the refuge.
