Early Releases.
Bombay Hook NWR of Delaware is home to a variety of migrating birds, which the wildlife refuge strives to protect. These birds make their home in a tidal salt marsh, which contains nutrient rich water flows. The water flows help keep native foliage alive, providing homes for many of the animals in the area. Around 100,000 visitors come each year for bird watching, a 12-mile auto tour, photography, hiking, visiting historic sites, and other activities.
Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge in Delaware is the fourth national site commemorated in 2015. It is the 29th release in the America the Beautiful Quarters series. The reverse features a great blue heron in the foreground and a great egret behind it. Both are seen in the midst of the refuge’s tidal salt marsh. Surrounding the scene are inscriptions of BOMBAY HOOK, DELAWARE, E PLURIBUS UNUM and 2015.
