What To See Of course, Cedar Island is one of the best places to see black ducks in the winter. In addition, barn owls use nest boxes placed in the marsh to raise their young. Barn owls typically nest between April and September, which is the best time to see them. Check out a map of the area . What To Do The many black ducks and other waterfowl, including mallards, scaup and bufflehead attract hunters.
Trapping is offered by yearly lease.
Crabbing, as well as fishing for sea trout, rockfish, bluefish and spot are activities enjoyed by visitors. Mosquitoes and other biting insects are plentiful from spring through early fall.
