Cuyahoga Valley National Park - Beaver Marsh

As stated on their website, “Throughout the year, the Beaver Marsh teems with life. Depending on the month, you may be serenaded by choirs of countless frogs, watch turtles swim among lily pads, glimpse a beaver nibbling on a willow branch, or hear northern cardinals call from snowy trees. The Beaver Marsh is among the most diverse natural communities in Cuyahoga Valley National Park. The exceptional scenery and wildlife make it one of the park’s most popular destinations. Here you can enjoy photography, bird watching, and sharing nature with family and friends.

 

Additionally, it states, “Trekkers are sure to delight in Beaver Marsh, just north of the Ira Trailhead, where ingenious local beavers have dammed waterways with mud and sticks and can often be spotted mid-evening gearing up for more work on their wetlands projects. Designated as an Important Bird Area by the National Audubon Society, this is also an amazing spot for hikers and trail runners who also happen to be bird enthusiasts looking to soak up all the avian activity. Nesting waterfowl, wrens, sparrows, orioles, frogs, water snakes, and even the occasional otter all turn up here.”
