  • Inland Bays Journal
    FALL | WINTER 2013 Inland Bays Journal Fall Brings an Abundance of Riches in What’s Inside Waterfowl to our Inland Bays By Matthew DiBona, Wildlife Biologist, DNREC Division of Fish and Wildlife Not being a native son of Delaware, I feel the need to point out what most of you (natives or not) already know: Delaware has an embarrassment of riches when it comes to waterfowl. Passage of Shellfish The diversity of habitats, the amount of protected lands open to waterfowl Aquaculture Legislation in Delaware, see page 3. viewing and hunting, the sheer number of ducks and geese found in Delaware during migration and wintering months is astounding. As a wildlife biologist, one of the more enjoyable aspects of my job is flying aerial surveys for waterfowl. Seeing the abundance and distribution of waterfowl along the bays change as the fall progresses is really interesting. Early migrants such as green-winged teal and northern pintail are found in large numbers in October and November, but gradually give way to late season migrants such as mallards, black ducks, and Canada geese. The Gift of Place, see page 4–5. Spending eight hours a day in a small airplane is not as exciting as it sounds. But as I work my way south towards the Inland Bays I always perk up a little bit because I’m always treated to something a little different than the average fare. The mix of saltmarsh, intertidal flats and open water supports a variety of waterfowl not seen in the rest of the state. Sure you can see your pintails, black (continued on page 6) Return of the Eelgrass?, see page 7.

  • Walking Running Hiking Delaware Outdoor Trail
    Get on the path to discovery Here’s a step-by-step guide to running, walking and hiking in Delaware From its woods to its waterside trails, Delaware offers hikers, walkers and runners perfect pathways to discovery – it has even been named as one of the most walkable and bikeable states in America. Here’s a three-day journey that will give you a deeper perspective on Delaware’s diverse ecology. DAY 1 Start in Northern Delaware, in the wooded rolling hills of “Chateau Country.” Get your motor charged with coffee and breakfast at Delaware’s own Brew HaHa Espresso & Newsstand, then head to Brandywine Creek State Park along the scenic Brandywine River, where the Hidden Pond Trail offers vistas of open fields bordered by artisan-crafted stone walls. Heading south to Newark, take your pick of lunch spots: Newark Bagel, Iron Hill Brewery (a stop on the Delaware Wine & Ale Trail) or Claymont Steak Shop (a Delaware Culinary Trail favorite). Work off lunch along the Pomeroy Trail at White Clay Creek State Park, one of the state’s largest preserves of woodlands. This hiker’s paradise offers 37 miles of trails leading to historic sites and scenic vistas overlooking lush valleys and impressive rock outcrops. Now head south to Lums Pond State Park in the Middletown area, where the 6.4- mile Swamp Forest Trail loops around the pond through fresh water wetland forests of black cherry, sweet gum, and maple. Off the trail are links to the campground, boat launch, disc golf course, dog training area, nature center and picnic areas.
