Birding
At Boyer Chute National Wildlife Refuge
The auto tour and hiking trails provide great access for birding within the diverse Missouri River floodplain habitat. Binoculars are not available for loan onsite so make sure to come prepared.
Birding is typically best in the morning and evening times, especially during the hot summer months. The time of year will also play a role in the birds that you may see on the refuge. During the spring and summer months look for a variety of warblers, sparrows, woodpeckers, and other songbirds in the grassland and bottomland forest habitat. The winter is best for viewing eagles, especially along the river and mouth of the chute.
