Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge, 100 Brown Farm Rd NE, Olympia, WA 98516-2302

This is a flat hike, mostly on dikes and boardwalks that take you a full mile deep into the largest restored estuary in the Northwest, a birder’s delight.

Dozens of species of swans, geese, ducks, loons, grebes, cormorants, and herons are commonly seen, as well as eagles, osprey, hawks, and falcons who feed upon rich supplies of fish and reptiles. Beavers, mink, and weasles round out the wildlife you are likely to spot.

I will provide a scope and binoculars, but you’ll definitely want to bring a camera, preferably one with telephoto lens.

Duration: 4 hours
