Description
A view of Lake Erie at Old Woman Creeks barrier beach. Here you can see a small stream cutting through the beach to Lake Erie. This small stream's size largely depends on rainfall, after a particularly heavy rain it turns into a flowing little river. The beach is part of Old Woman Creek Estuary and Reserve in Huron, Ohio. Where the waters of Lake Erie meet and mix with the creek. This forms a chemically different type of water. This is also the only Great Lakes-type freshwater estuary in the National Estuarine Research reserve system.The estuary is home to many different types of mammals, reptiles, fish, amphibians, insects and is home to The American Bald Eagle. The estuary is also used as a field laboratory for scientists and students to study this unique natural setting.
