At 1,202 acres, Nestucca Bay Refuge is the largest of the six Oregon Coastal Refuges. Located where the Nestucca and Little Nestucca Rivers converge and debouch into the Pacific, the Refuge is managed to provide wintering habitat for six subspecies of white-cheeked geese, including Aleutian Cackling and Dusky Canada Geese. The Refuge also hosts several species of dabbling ducks, shorebirds, raptors, songbirds, anadromous fish, sylvan and estuarine mammals, and a population of the threatened Oregon Silverspot Butterfly on its seven distinct habitat types. It's a great place to hike in the morning and have a picnic lunch at noon.
