Located along the Columbia River dikes, Ridgefield Refuge has open oak woodlands that provide habitat for Scrub Jays, Bald Eagles, Tundra Swans, Sandhill Cranes and thousands of Cackling and Canada Geese.  The Julia Butler Hansen NWR has tidal and fresh water wetlands, the Columbia River and supports a large variety of waterfowl and if we are lucky a White-tailed Kite. Vancouver Lake is home to more waterfowl, sparrows and gulls. The Dike Access Rd. circles the Woodland Bottoms and brings us close to the Columbia River beaches, sandbars and riparian forest.  Stay at a motel in Woodland.  Meet by 8:00 a.m. at north end of the Wilburton P&R (I-405, exit 12, SE 8th St.). Limit of 12, call Brian Bell (425-485-8058) to reserve a spot.  Passenger cost/person $25.00.
