Donnelley WMA (Wildlife Management Area) consist of 8048
acres in eastern Colleton County near Green Pond, SC.
The pictures I have posted were taken along the 11 mile
driving/cycling tour in Donnelley WMA.
I cycled the tour and found it to be a great ride. The roads for the most part are hard packed
gravel/dirt roads. Some of the side roads
I took were more grass covered road that were also open to motor vehicles. The area offers some great wildlife and
nature viewing. Lots of water birds and
alligators in the old rice fields and tidal areas. The area has whitetail deer and feral hogs
but with my more or less continued riding on my bicycle I did not see any.

Yes there is a small alligator on the bank. The larger one were in hiding.

Ricefield Trunk. The name comes for the original flood controls were actual tree trunks hollowed out and fitted with a plug to control the water flow.
