WHAT TO BRING

This area is not a park, so leave pets, bikes, barbecues and sports equipment at home, and bring your binoculars or your cameras instead. Come for an outdoor walk among the birds for at least an hour, wear comfortable outdoor clothing and shoes, and bring sunscreen and water.

This area has been dedicated to protect wildlife and its habitat. Please observe posted rules.

Do not chase or try to handle our wild birds. Every year, many birds are seriously injured.

Small buildings along trails are for quiet bird-viewing only.

Feed ducks far away from the parking lot and buildings, and feed them grains, not bread.

Watch for ducks, children and other pedestrians in the parking lot.

ENJOY YOUR VISIT!
