Patuxent Research Refuge

The Patuxent Research Refuge is a little known gem to be found between Laurel and Bowie, Maryland. It is composed of over 12,750 acres of land dedicated to wildlife research. The refuge has a visitors center where visitors can find out about the work the refuge is performing. The refuge also has trails where visitors can take peaceful country walks. Lastly, Cash Lake is open during certain hours for fishermen. Fishermen must hold a current Maryland fishing license and obtain a permit from the refuge if they wish to fish there. Below are some pictures I took of the refuge.
