Different Ecotones

A mixed-grass prairie grassland with sagebrush meets Wild Horse Lake at War Horse National Wildlife Refuge - Wild Horse Unit. Where these to ecotones meet creates a unique interface that offers important habitat features for the wildlife species that reside in these two vastly different habitat types. For the patient wildlife viewer or photographer, it also offers the chance to perhaps see the unexpected. Photo by Cortez Rohr/USFWS.
