Throughout the year, the refuge offers the community free behind the scene guided tours in normally restricted areas, such as docent guided birding walks or paddle tours. This is a great opportunity to see local and migratory birds up-close and learn a bit more about your wild neighbors. Please see the Tours section for the current schedule of docent guided birding walks and paddle tours with more detailed information.
