Location
In Fossil, take Hwy 19 NW until you leave town. Just a short distance from town are two ponds. Both are on the left side of the road and several hundred yards from each other. The pond closer to town is raised above the road. The upper pond is much easier to view than the pond nearest to town.
DirectionsHabitat and Birds
Birds here include a variety of ducks and grebes. Look for phalaropes, peeps, and the occasional tern.
