Description:
Trails encircle a mangrove wetland and allow close views of the courtship activities, nest building, and rearing of chicks of a wading bird rookery. Guided bird walks are offered.
Watchable wildlife:
Nesting begins in late February and continues through the summer. You can expect to see cattle egrets, great egrets, anhingas, white ibis, tricolored herons, little blue herons, green herons, and double-crested cormorants. The birds roost here throughout the year and are stirring to watch as they return for the evening.
