A quiet Hudson Valley wetland offering marsh reflections, cattail foregrounds, migrating waterfowl and wading birds. Best at dawn/dusk for active birdlife and soft side/backlight on reeds. Accessible from 4 Mile Point Rd with limited parking; check NY DEC WMA rules (no fee). Spring migration and fall color bring the most variety; bring insect repellent in warm months and waterproof boots for shoreline shots.
