Significance: This prominent landmark, with its forest covering and location just northwest of Atlanta, is the most significant site in the state for migrating warblers to come together and feed, apparently due to its visibility as the first small mountain to be seen coming from south Georgia.
In particular, cerulean warblers are more numerous here during migration than at any other site in Georgia, but dozens of warblers of 37 species also use it extensively.

 Wetlands, Biodiversity and the Ramsar Convention intro
Several marine fish spawn in mangrove swamps or use these habitats as a nursery for their young because of the ready availability of small food materials and the security provided by mangrove roots.
In addition, mangrove swamps are used for nursery and feeding by a range of coral reef-inhabiting species, while the reefs provide sheltered conditions along the coast which encourage mangrove establishment; this suggests that these associated wetland types are mutually supportive.
Africa's size and diversity of landscape are striking: bordered by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, the Indian and Atlantic oceans to the east and west respectively, and the Antarctic in the south, it covers 70º of latitude, several climatic zones, and a considerable altitudinal range.
