Rare Plants & Wildlife

The island is home to a mix of different wildlife habitats. Wetland species particularly benefit from the habitat; flocks of black swans, white swans, geese, and ducks utilize the sheltered area for feeding and resting. Migratory songbirds abound during the temperate months, with intense activity in the spring. Ospreys and bald eagles occur here, as do waders such as green heron, great egret, and great blue heron.
