Guana River Wildlife Management Area is an excellent place to hike
and view wildlife, especially birds, year-round. Temperatures are likely
to be cooler and bugs fewer fall through spring. During April and October,
especially with a west wind or after a cold front, this is the best
place in northeast Florida to see peregrine falcons. In January and
February, white pelicans may be observed on Guana Lake. On Big Savannah
and other ponds you are likely to see wood storks, roseate spoonbills,
and other wading birds especially from May through September.
Duck
hunting season occurs on varying dates in September, November, December,
and January.
