 Bird species are also prevalent in the wetland restoration, common species include Great blue heron ("Ardea Herodias"), Canada goose ("Branta Canadensis"), Mallard duck ("Anas platyrhynchos"), Osprey ("Pandion haliaetus"), Red-tailed hawk ("Buteo jamaincensis"), and the American crow ("Corvus brachyrhynchos").Maintenance in the early years of the restoration project involved invasive species removal, trail maintenance, and thinning of brush.Because of the continuous input of invasive plant seeds, as well as the activity of beavers that opens up portions of the site, on-going invasive species removal is still necessary.
