The American Wildlife Refuge
Small refuge of marshes, ponds and boardwalks offering close encounters with waterfowl, wading birds, turtles and seasonal wildflowers. Best at golden hours and early mornings when birds are active and light is soft; spring and fall migrations boost diversity. Accessible trails and parking at the nearby lot; mostly flat and walkable but bring waterproof shoes for muddy spots. No permit for casual photography—respect wildlife distances and stay on paths.
