Moccasin Pond Van Tour
An experienced naturalist acts as your driver and guide on this is interesting tour of the Moccasin Pond driving loop and rail road. The tour requires a little more than an hour, and passes several freshwater marsh areas of the Refuge.
Visitors are likely to see Alligators, Turtles and several bird species including Moorhens, Coots, Grebes, Egrets, Herons, Blue-Winged Teal. You also may see Bitterns (American and sometimes Least), Purple Gallinules, Snakes and some mammals (Raccoons, Bobcats, and Deer). Bring binoculars for a closer view. If you don't own binoculars, we will have simple binoculars available for your use.
This tour is a wonderful introduction to the part of the refuge that is open to the public every day from sunrise to sunset.
