Description

Delta National Wildlife Refuge | U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service

Located at the delta of the Mississippi River, Delta National Wildlife Refuges' lush wetlands and marshes provide habitat for migratory birds, and a multitude of fish and wildlife species, and serve as a nursery for the rich aquatic resources of the region such as crabs, shrimp, and fresh and saltwater fish. Large numbers of wading birds nest on the refuge, and thousands of shorebirds can be found on tidal mudflats and deltaic splays. Tens of thousands of waterfowl winter at Delta and spring and fall migrations bring many other bird species. Delta National Wildlife Refuge offers a unique experience for visitors who venture beyond the road’s end to travel by boat across the Mississippi River, into the marshes of the Gulf of Mexico.
