MIDDLE GROUND, LA - APRIL 19: Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Secretary Robert Barham holds an oiled bird feather on April 19, 2011 at Middle Ground in southern Louisiana. A year after the BP oil spill coated Gulf coast beaches and marshes, BP claims that most of the oil has been removed. Barham says, however, that much of the coastal cleaning has been superficial, as the oil has seeped into the soil, killing marshes and further eroding the state's damaged Mississippi Delta ecosystem.
