Water, Water Everywhere
Most of Swan River National Wildlife Refuge consists of wetland/grassland habitat. Every spring, when snowpack begins to melt, run-off from Bond Creek, Yew Creek, and Spring Creek merge with the inundated Swan River and Swan Lake to flood large portions of the Refuge. Courtship behavior of waterfowl, shorebirds, and water birds will soon be the signs that spring has arrived.
