The Forgotten Coast is visited year round by wildlife enthusiasts of all kinds!

With this area being the first land mass on the spring migratory flyway, it's a bird-lovers paradise! Mass migration of birds from Southern America begins; we are on the first stop. 

In April we have all sorts of Songbirds, Swallowtail, Mississippi kites and even the great-crested flycatchers.  Hummingbirds are seen feeding on various native flowers.  Red-headed woodpeckers breed in April so many can be heard pecking away in the trees.  At the same time, Northern ducks depart to their summer (and cooler) homes to the north.
