The canopy of the mature forest provides nesting sites for Scarlet Tanagers, Great Crested Flycatchers, and Rose-breasted Grosbeaks. The pond attracts numerous waterfowl during spring and fall migration.

With everything from large red oaks to extensive wetlands, Eagle Lake supports a wealth of wildlife.

Explore 2 miles of trails with many pleasant overlooks at Eagle Lake Wildlife Sanctuary. Walk along Asnebumskit Brook to admire the bright red cardinal flower in late summer and large oaks year-round. Look for barred owls sunning on tree branches during the winter.
