7 islands wildlife sanitary out off Kodak road is a haven for over 40 types of birds. I learned this from some of the workers who conduct studies and tours out at this 100 plus acre refuge. Dogwood Arts and Covenant Health teamed up for some healthy walks this year and this was one of them.
The young ladies who help work there (work study program) know their facts about the types of birds you can see there, and the grasses and vegetation that are now thriving @ 7 islands. It is a great place to hike and we did about 4 miles but took our time looking at some new baby chickadees and viewing another rare type of bird (forgot the name now) & saw where 2 years ago an Eagle had its nest etc.
www.legacyparks.org can be a source of info (they helped get this park funded) as well as www.outdoorknoxville.com AND I always love stopping at Tuckahoe market 2 miles east of here to grab good ole home cooking
