Take a hike along Tsanchiifin Walk. This 1/2 mile trail offers an easy walk through the wetlands. Look for kestrels hovering while hunting, great blue herons hunting in vernal pools, and listen for pacific tree frogs. Six interpretive signs along the way (such as the one below) explain what wildlife can be found in the wetlands. View more signs!

Take a bike ride along the Fern Ridge bike path to Meadowlark Prairie Overlook. Along the way, look for herons, beaver activity, and you may even catch a glimpse of an otter in Amazon Creek.
