This walk takes us along the edge of a tidal wetland that is a haven for waterfowl and shorebirds. We'll see ducks in fresh breeding plumage as we keep an eye out for peregrine falcons and other raptors that frequent this spot during the autumn months. The road can be wet and muddy, so wear appropriate shoes. Total miles: 3. Elevation change: 100'. Remember to bring lunch, and binoculars if you have them. No pets are allowed, except for service/companion animals. Adverse weather or poor air quality may cancel. Registration is required.
