The Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1933 as a waterfowl sanctuary for birds migrating along the critical migration highway called the Atlantic Flyway. The refuge is located on Maryland's Eastern Shore, just 12 mi (19 km) south of Cambridge, Maryland in Dorchester County, and consists of over 28,000 acres (110 km2) of freshwater impoundments, brackish tidal wetlands, open fields, and mixed evergreen and deciduous forests. Blackwater NWR is one of over 540 units in the National Wildlife Refuge System, which is managed by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service. Blackwater Refuge is fed by the Blackwater River and the Little Blackwater River. The name "blackwater" comes from the tea-colored waters of the local rivers, which are darkened by the tannin that is picked up as the water drains through peat soil in the marshes.

Le refuge est situé sur la côte est du Maryland, sur la péninsule de Delmarva à seulement 12 mi (19 km) au sud de Cambridge dans le comté de Dorchester, et se compose de plus de 110 km2 de zone humide, de marécages saumâtres, de champs ouverts et mixtes à feuilles persistantes et forêts de feuillus. Il est l'une des plus de 540 unités du National Wildlife Refuge System, qui est géré par la United States Fish and Wildlife Service. Il est alimenté par la Blackwater River et la Little Blackwater River. Le nom eaux noires vient des eaux couleur thé des rivières locales, qui sont assombries par le tanin qui est capté lorsque l'eau s'écoule à travers la tourbe des marais. En plus d'une multitude de zones humides et de forêts, le refuge abrite également plus de 250 espèces d'oiseaux, 35 espèces de reptiles et d'amphibiens, 165 espèces de plantes menacées et en voie de disparition et de nombreux mammifères que l'on peut observer tout au long de l'année dans les marai, forêts, prairies et champs. Pendant la migration hivernale, le refuge abrite également plus de 15 000 oies et 10 000 canards. Le refuge abrite actuellement trois espèces récupérées : l'écureuil renard de Delmarva, anciennement en voie de disparition, le faucon pèlerin migrateur radié et le pygargue à tête blanche américain.
