Observation Narrative	The plot is located in a portion of a large interdune pond heavily trampled and grazed by ponies. The unpalatable forbs Pluchea odorata, Bacopa monnieri and Hydrocotyle spp. form low, dense tangles here. Just across the pony compartment fence, ungrazed vegetation consists primarily of mid-height Schoenoplectus pungens and Spartina patens, with a sparsity of associated forbs. Plot located by pony fence (on enclosed side) at eastern end of pond, just north of Woodland Trail parking area and 0.9 mi SSW of Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge office.
