When submitting eBird observations at Hyannis Ponds Wildlife Management Area, it is most helpful to start a new checklist for each hotspot in the wildlife area. Use the general hotspot when you have a checklist that includes multiple locations or if no other hotspot or personal location is appropriate for your sightings.

Hyannis Ponds Wildlife Management Area (WMA) features a pitch pine forest with an understory dominated by huckleberry and lowbush blueberry. The WMA is divided into 3 main parcels and provides access to three coastal plain ponds: Lamson Pond, Israel Pond, and Campground Pond.

There is a dirt parking area next to the main parcel located off of Mary Dunn Road in Barnstable which can hold 2 vehicles and allows for access to parcels on either side of Mary Dunn Road. Roadside parking and access to the southern, smallest parcel can be accessed from Airport Road.
