Photograph of a Cumberland Island, Georgia swamp. Trees and shrubs surround the calm waters, and several trees emerge from the waters of the swamp. Cumberland's interior maritime forest is studded with saltwater coves, freshwater ponds, and inland swamps, all providing shelter for migratory ducks and long-legged wading birds.
Cumberland Island, composed of Great and Little Cumberland islands, is the largest and southernmost in a chain of barrier islands extending the length of Georgia, known collectively as the Sea Islands or sometimes as Georgia's Golden Isles. - Metadata URL:
