Rattlesnake Point Road

A quieter peripheral stop that can be useful for checking a mix of shoreline and roadside habitat away from the busier town sites.

Rattlesnake Point Road has a more out-of-the-way feel and works best for birders who enjoy exploratory stops. The surrounding habitat mix can produce both shoreline birds and open-country species, depending on exact conditions and how far you bird the road edges. It is best used as a supplement to stronger marquee sites rather than a stand-alone destination for casual visitors.

Habitat
