Description: The region around Buck's Pocket State Park, South Sauty Creek, and Morgan's Cove provides a number of habitats worthy of exploration. The waters of South Sauty Creek are attractive to numerous migratory waterfowl, as well as Great Blue Herons and Great Egrets. Just downstream from the boat landing at Morgan's Cove, Bald Eagles are known to neston the forested slopes above the creek.Buck's Pocket State Park's wooded pocket canyon is complete with singing Red-eyed Vireo, Wood Thrush, and Scarlet Tanagers. The park can also host some interesting surprises during migration. Morgan's Cove is also part of the state park. This secluded cove is the perfect spot to watch Belted Kingfishers diving for their dinner or to launch a canoe and paddle your day away.
