Contest #883: Sandhills of Nebraska, US

The lake in the middle of the image is Egan Lake, located in the Sandhills of Nebraska. This part of the state is a region of mixed-grass prairie on grass-stabilized sand dunes, covering just over one quarter of the state. The dunes were designated a National Natural Landmark in 1984.

The Sandhills sit atop the massive Ogallala Aquifer; thus both temporary and permanent shallow lakes are common in low-lying valleys between the grass-stabilized dunes prevalent in the Sandhills.
