Bring binoculars and good rain gear. We’ll see many birds at both sites, and hopefully the resident elk herd at Johns River. Use your imagination to learn some fascinating history on Bottle Beach, explore the tidal area, see “thousands” of shore birds, and check out the well established “tire” pools along one stretch of the beach.
