Setting Sun at Eufaula National Wildlife Refuge

Donna and I had a great time drivig through the back roads of the refuge looking for wild life. No alligators...just a great picture of a butterfly.

Eufaula National Wildlife Refuge (Alabama) was established in 1964, through community support and in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, to provide habitat for wintering waterfowl and other migratory and resident wildlife.

The Eufaula NWR protects several endangered and threatened species such as the bald eagle, wood stork, American alligator and the peregrine falcon. There is a variety of wildlife habitats in the Eufaula NWR including approximately 4000 acres of open water, 3000 acres of wetlands, 2000 acres of woodlands, 1000 acres of croplands and 1000 acres of grasslands.
