Refuge named for Ding Darling!

In class today, we briefly discussed Ding Darling, a cartoonist who helped give the nation insight as to what was really going on in the world of wildlife.  But did you know that one of our refuges are named for him? US Fish and Wildlife Services posted an article that this Sanibel Island (FL) refuge is travel guru Arthur Frommer's favorite destination spot because the island a mecca for “thousands of birds of every species.” The article briefly talks a little bit about the actual refuge, so check it out, it may just become one of your favorite destinations as well!
