Patuxent Research
Refuge and
National Wildlife Refuge
|
"Patuxent Research Refuge supports a wide diversity of
wildlife in forest, meadow, and wetland habitats. The land is
managed to maintain biological diversity for the protection and
benefit of native and migratory species. During the fall and spring
migrations, many waterfowl species stop to rest and feed. Over 200
species of birds occur on the Refuge. A nesting pair of bald eagles
has used the North Tract of the Refuge since 1989."
