Excellent wildlife viewing, particularly for eagles, osprey, and great blue herons, is available from all points of the water surrounding the refuge. Once on the island, the three-miles of trails and boardwalks further your observation opportunities to more terrestrial species- mammals, reptiles, and invertebrates. A fifteen foot tall observation platform supports high bluff views over the river and sweeping landscape vistas of the island. Please remember to keep a safe distance from wildlife so as to not disturb them from their natural routines. Feeding of wildlife is strictly prohibited.
