The Home of the Fox Squirrels
Echoing songs of birds unseen resonated through the forest, drowning out our muffled footsteps as we crept along the soft padding of the floor, guided by Ranger Matt Whitbeck. Neither brush nor bramble hindered our passing, for this was an old growth forest, its ground covering flat and open, making it easy to move amidst the tall mature trees. This is in large part the reason why the Delmarva Fox Squirrel, a federally endangered species, prefers the woodlands of the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge over most other habitats.
