A boardwalk winds through an upland forest designated as an Alabama Treasure Forest by the Alabama Forestry Commission at Weeks Bay Reserve, May 27, 2021, in Fairhope, Alabama. The Weeks Bay Reserve, also known as the Weeks Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, is a field laboratory and research facility along Weeks Bay estuary, which receives freshwater from the Magnolia and Fish Rivers and drains into Mobile Bay. The 6, 000-acre estuary includes upland and bottomland hardwood forests, freshwater marsh, submerged aquatic vegetation, and bog habitats. The Weeks Bay Interpretive Center gives the public the chance to learn more about these areas and the plants and animals that inhabit them. Self-guiding nature trails wind through wetlands, marshes, bogs, and forests. Weeks Bay serves as a crritical nursery for a number of marine and aquatic species, including shrimp, crabs, and other shellfish. The Treasure Forest designation is awarded to private landowners who promote sound and sustainable, multiple-use forest management. (Photo by Carmen K. Sisson/Cloudybright)
