Field Trip: Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge
Program for Adults
 
Consisting of 16,251 acres, Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge protects one of the largest remaining expanses of tidal salt marsh in the mid-Atlantic region. October, the best month for observing avocets, prompts large numbers of Canada and snow geese as well as pintail, mallard, and black ducks as they begin their fall migration. Explore interactive displays at the Visitor Center and experience diverse habitats for wildlife viewing during a 12-mile self-guided driving tour. While on the tour, take a break from the drive and hit the trails and observation towers for more wildlife viewing and photography. Be sure to bring your camera, binoculars, and bag lunch.
