McCredie Farm Lake

About this Location

This is a small site worth a stop to see what might be present in the lakelet and mixed habitats around it.

The fence row on the right the low, often wet patch of woods on the left along the entrance road should be checked. A fisherman path goes around the pond, but going is difficult on the west, wooded side, and access from that side is fenced and gated from the parking lot. The walk from the dam and part of the east side are usually kept mowed. The trees near the parking lot and brushy area below the dam can produce some surprises. The grassland and fields visible from the entrance road and parking lot may harbor meadowlarks, Dickcissels and sparrows. Raptors may be as interested in these as birders are, so keep an eye to the sky.
