Home of the Osprey Cam and the Eagle Cam at various parts of the year depending on temperature, Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1933 as a waterfowl
sanctuary for birds migrating along the critical Atlantic Flyway. The
Refuge is located on Maryland's scenic Eastern Shore, just 12 miles south
of Cambridge, and consists of over 27,000 acres of freshwater impoundments,
brackish tidal wetlands, open fields, and mixed evergreen and deciduous
forests.
