Roosevelt as a refuge and breeding ground for migratory birds and other wildlife, Loess Bluffs National Wildlife Refuge is known as a paradise for bird watchers, the site being designated a Globally Important Bird Area as well as a designated site along the Great Missouri Birding Trail. One of its features is the Wild Goose Auto Tour, a 10-mile auto tour route where you can experience wildlife year round. As summer approaches, snakes and turtles are often seen crossing the auto tour. This time of year is also popular for viewing nesting songbirds as well as great blue herons and other wading birds. The refuge is located in northwest Missouri near Mound City. | | | | You can also reply to this email to leave a comment. | | | | |
