Tom Butler, a resident of the RV park, will guide us to view some of the eight bodies of water that attract various water birds and the wooded areas where Barred Owls, hawks, woodpeckers, and songbirds live. Tom has done a lot of work in the park to create an attractive habitat for birds and viewing areas for folks interested in seeing the birds. In recent years 159 species of birds have been reported on eBird!

When you reach the park entrance, continue on First Street, passing RV lots, a creek, and more RV lots. Park behind the Post Office, which is on the right. There are restrooms there.
