Description

I came across this wonderful old barn while driving down Miller Island Road, just west of Klamath Falls, Oregon. This area is part of the Klamath Wildlife Area, known as the Miller Island Unit. This is a wonderful place to bird-watch and see how many different species your can find.

Distinct Features:
The Miller Island Unit is a prime staging area in the late winter and early spring for migrating Ross's, Snow, and White-front Geese.
A 2.5 mile pedestrian viewing loop is open all year.
Birds to Look For:
Nesting Sandhill Cranes are common and pairs can be seen doing their mating rituals in the spring. Bald Eagles can be seen foraging on the area during late February and March. A wide variety of waterfowl utilize the area. Populations of up to 35,000 White Geese (Snow and Ross's) can be seen in the late winter and early spring staging for their northern migration. Resident Canada Geese and ducks can be viewed with their broods during the spring and summer. Shorebird viewing can also be good here. Raptors such as Rough-legged Hawk, American Kestrel and Northern Harrier are easily seen during the winter months.
