One tile of the 2020 USGS/NAIP aerial survey, flown 28 July 2020, at the south-eastern of Garden Island in St. James Township, Charlevoix County.

The most informative of the four: a large part of Garden Island’s south-eastern shore, showing wooded interior with inland ponds, a bay closed by sand flats, extensive pale shoals offshore, and a small offshore island.

These are flight tiles, not a portrait of the island. The uploader’s title names the quarter each tile touches; what fills the frame varies from almost all water to a substantial stretch of shore, so each is described from the image itself.
