Trip Report

Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge — Saturday, Aug. 29, 2020

Puget Sound and Islands > Seattle-Tacoma Area

Arrived mid to late afternoon and the parking lot was as busy as ever. Did a quick tour out the boardwalk to the dike, over to the first observation platform, then back along the dike to far side boardwalk and back to the lot. Saw a lot of people but almost everyone had a mask. 

On the boardwalk in we managed to see a few interesting species of bird and some frogs. 

Out on the dike, the tide was pretty far in but we managed to see many interesting birds including a heron that had caught a snake and overflow the path at low elevation. Many peeps were seen in the distant flats.
