Today was a great day. We went to Poplar Island, a federally funded island being built in the Chesapeake Bay. At first we only saw a flat patch of nothingness. However, it was interesting because we had a tour around the island and saw different terrains made completely out of dredge materials. We also saw various birds that live on the island like cormorants and swallows. We asked the tour guides about the history of the island and realized that the island had completely eroded away and was brought back with the help of millions and millions of dollars and lots of dredge material from the bottom of the bay.
