Old Forge Road Pond

Depending on water levels, this cattle pond is often productive for dabbling ducks and shorebirds.  When the water is low species such as American Golden Plover, Pectoral Sandpiper and Red-necked Phalarope have been recorded.  Both Blue-winged and Green-winged Teal have been found here during migration as well. During the summer the pond usually hosts families of Canada Geese and Wood Ducks.

Accessibility: This pond is located on private property but is easily viewable from Old Forge Road.  There is ample room to safely pull off the road near the gate at the curve in the road.
