Farmington Bay Waterfowl Management Area

Farmington Bay Waterfowl Management Area spans 18,000 acres of wetland habitat that attracts migratory and nesting shorebirds throughout the year, making it a prime spot for birdwatching and hunting. The gravel walking trails wind through the marshes and offer views of ducks, herons, and other waterfowl, though the surfaces can be challenging for small-wheeled strollers. Restrooms are available on-site, but there's no shade structure, so plan accordingly for sun exposure during warmer months when bug activity increases.
