PHOTO GALLERY

These pictures taken from the fields of WCP will help you appreciate how the quiet way of life here offers beauty and wonder to all of us who stop and ponder what we observe around us. As you view these organisms, consider how their lives are interlinked with many others.  Each of the photos have a link to learn more about particular organisms. Just click on the photo, and another window will open that provides more information. The informative comments describing plants in this gallery have been taken from Hamilton and Hall’s book, Wildflowers and Grasses of Virginia’s Coastal Plain.
