Tips for Birding

This is a typical roadside situation where you will need to pull completely off the roadway to view. Formerly, the pond had substantial cattails along the sides, making it more suitable for diverse water birds than is current (cattails have been removed). You can also use this hotspot to view hay fields and fencelines to the north.
