Coastal Grassland

Coastal Grassland   The coastal grassland is a gentle and stable landscape shaped and influenced by strong winds. This community does not come into frequent contact with salt water. The primary species of coastal grass on Pier 26 is the little bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium). These grasses provide important habitat to several bird species including the Savannah sparrow and red-winged blackbird.   Woodland Forest   Coastal Grassland   Maritime Scrub   Rocky Tidal Zone   Hudson River   HUDSON RIVER PK
