Important Reminder to Refuge Visitors…

To protect wildlife and their habitat and to provide the best opportunities in wildlife observation and photography, it is important not to disturb, injure, or damage plants and animals on the refuge.  In fact, it is a prohibited act as stated in 50 CFR 27.51.  This disturbance includes flushing birds and other wildlife or using electronic calls (or called “taping”) to lure birds closer for observation or photography.  Please remember to take only memories and photographs and leave only footprints.
