Hawk’s Hammock
This rustic site offers miles of trails through pine flatwoods frequented by Hairy and Downy Woodpeckers, and along an extensive marsh used by Sandhill Cranes and flocks of Wood Storks. At the parking area, check the canal for waterbirds and then explore the trail system, keeping an eye peeled for roaming flocks of songbirds like Pine Warblers. Eastern Phoebes and Great Crested Flycatchers ply their trade from fence posts and high perches, in season. The dirt road entrance can get muddy, but normally remains passable.
