Mounds Pool Interpretive TrailHugging the "Forgotten Coast" of the Big Bend, St. Marks NWR encompasses a broad sweep of salt marshes and tidal flats, brackish impoundments, cabbage palm hammocks, and pinelands. The Mounds Pool Interpretive Trail offers an excellent spot for birding along the man-made impoundments, melding a shady walk along one pool to a breezy walk in the sun out along the marshes. The high point is an observation deck over the tidal marsh, where you're bound to see egrets, herons, and wood storks feeding.
