This fall I saw 40 sandhill cranes hanging out in the cattails. I counted twice. In the spring we saw tons of leatherback turtles in the canal. There are great walking and skiing trails along Lake Webesa. Park at the campground. You'd think, being the recovery ponds for the sewage treatment plant, it would be rank, but the water is "clean" by the time it gets in the ponds. I used to canoe back here to see all the birds, now I walk to them.
