Along the sourthern edge of Lake Erie in Ohio lies the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge Complex. This complex is made up of three National Wildlife Refuges, two divisions and one waterfowl production area:

  • Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge (Including the Darby and Navarre Divisions) profile page

  • Cedar Point National Wildlife Refuge profile page

  • West Sister Island National Wildlife Refuge profile page

  • Schoonover Waterfowl Production Area

With over 9,000 acres, these refuges help to preserve the diminishing Lake Erie marshes and provide a resting and feeding place for birds traveling to their nesting or wintering grounds.
