Pumpkin Hill Creek Preserve is where you can head to see the birds. Song birds, owls, woodpeckers, turkey and bobwhite are some of the residents you will find, no matter what time of year. During the winter months, a pair of American bald Eagles nest in the pines. Wood storks, roseate spoonbills and egrets fish the salt marsh. Be sure to bring your binoculars and your field guide along on your birding trip.
