Summary

Description

Ducks and geese fly above wetlands at Grand Cote National Wildlife Refuge in Louisiana. The refuge is an important rest stop for many of the migrating birds that make their way from Alaska to the Gulf of Mexico and back along the Mississippi Flyway. The Conservation Fund is helping the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service restore the historical bottomland hardwood forests that help feed and shelter the shorebirds, blackbirds, warblers and others.

To learn more about the carbon mitigation techniques being used at Grand Cote and Lake Ophelia, read our blog post, "Louisiana: Re-planting Forests, Reducing CO2 and Saving Wildlife" - go.usa.gov/b2u
