Windy days create beautiful wavelets at Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge in Nevada. A relatively rare phenomenon at Crystal Reservoir, these waves were caused by sustained 40-mile-per-hour winds with gusts up to 60 miles per hour.  Ash Meadows is home to the last remaining oasis in the Mojave desert and provides a vital water source and is home to ancient species of fish. This special place is home to 26 endemic species; both plants and animals found nowhere else in the world. Photo by Rod Colvin, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
