The Tom Tyler Complex is named for an multi-generation Dorchester resident who fished and hunted the Nanticoke region for most of his life and who served as the regional forester for Chesapeake Forest Products. Known for his fierce passion for the region, he was extremely upset by the sprawling development happening on the Shore, despite his opposition to making the Nanticoke a national park or preserve. When harvesting timber, he believed in leaving a larger-than-required buffer of trees. This helped improve the scenery along roadways and helped preserve water quality and wildlife habitat. To many, Tom Tyler will always be remembered as a person who cared for the rivers and the woods. The Tom Tyler Complex is home to not only a wide variety of wildlife, but to a vast array of butterflies. If they are lucky, visitors may be able to spy Eastern Tiger and Spicebush Swallowtails, Falcate Orangetips, Brown Elfins, Red-banded Hairstreaks, Eastern Tailed Blues, Summer Azures, Pearl Crescents, American Ladies, and Juvenal's Duskywings.
