Just Ducky in Guy Mills

By Linda Tancs

Life is just ducky at Erie National Wildlife Refuge in Guy Mills, Pennsylvania.  Its lakes and wetlands attract up to 20 species of ducks, not to mention the migrating Canada geese and bald eagles.  One of over 500 national wildlife refuges in the United States dedicated specifically to wildlife conservation, the Pennsylvania landmark features at its heart Beaver Run Trail, a one mile loop with a spur trail at its eastern end.  The four-seasons trail takes visitors through woods, cultivated fields and beaver ponds (as the name implies).  Take PA 198 east one quarter mile to Cooper Road, then merge onto Hanks Road for one mile to the parking area on the right.
