Bayou De View is an 〔U.S. Geological Survey. National Hydrography Dataset high-resolution flowline data. (The National Map ), accessed March 9, 2011〕 waterway that flows through parts of Woodruff, Monroe and Prairie counties in northeastern Arkansas. The bayou is part of the Cache and White River basins, ultimately flowing into the Mississippi River. Several miles of the lower portion of Bayou de View is within the Cache River National Wildlife Refuge. In 2012, the Fish and Wildlife Service proposed an expansion of the refuge, purchasing land as available from willing sellers, to include an additional 30 miles of Bayou de View in the refuge.〔"Cache River expansion Proposal" http://www.fws.gov/southeast/cacheriverexpansion/overview.html, accessed 8 July 2013〕 The land area bordering the bayou supports dense vegetation in the form of tupelo, bald cypress, hickory, pine and other native trees of the hardwood and softwood families. This area used to be known as part of the "Big Woods" of Arkansas, but most of the standing timber was cleared for farming by the second half of the 20th century. Now, however, there are many reforestation projects underway around the edges of the bayou, including moist-soils projects and hardwood planting projects. Recently, Bayou De View and the town of Brinkley have gained international attention from possible sightings of the ivory-billed woodpecker, which was thought to be extinct since the 1940s.〔http://www.stateparks.com/bayou_de_view.html〕 ==Location== ;Mouth: Confluence with the Cache River in Monroe County, Arkansas: ;Source: Craighead County, Arkansas: 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bayou De View」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
