| Almost 250 different kinds of birds can be found at this beautiful National Estuarine research Reserve, but my very favorites are the amazing Great Blue Herons. You can almost reach out and touch them. Take the 2 mile trail along the shore of the 11,000 acres of bay. At high tide it's about 12 feet deep in the middle, at low tide it seems to be all mud. There are large seagrass meadows, and great feeding areas for all kinds of birds. A whole new meaning to a grass roots movement! |

| Play a game with the Park's checklist brochure and see how many wonderful birds you can spot. Don't forget to bring your binoculars to Padilla Bay for bird watching, but you'll easily see so many without binoculars too. We visited in the spring and birds were very busy with mates and territories. |
