The Wildlife Tour Osprey, bluebirds, yellow perch, cattails, painted turtles, butterflies, fox and muskrats–these and other intriguing creatures inhabit Dundee Creek. Some show themselves readily; others are more elusive and mysterious. And they are all interconnected. Let an experienced naturalist help you uncover these wonders and enrich your personal connection to one of Maryland’s pristine habitats.

The Photographer’s Tour Osprey, mergansers, ducks, old pilings, weathered docks, a boat house, a variety of water craft, small tributaries and open shorelines–what an extraordinary array of subjects for photographers at all skill levels. You bring the camera; and Erin Travis, an accomplished and versatile photographer, will you get up close and personal with some of nature’s loveliest moments. Erin’s work can be seen at www.erintravis.com.

The Sketch Pad Tour Yes, there are swans in Dundee Creek, and geese, and a lovely footbridge, and a boathouse sitting up on pilings, and several duck blinds half hidden in the phragmites. The shoreline trees are often dramatic, and the shoreline reflections, depending on weather, are quite charming. From a kayak, you get some quite unusual perspectives. From your naturalist guide, who happens also to be a practicing artist, you will get expert advice!

Birders’ Tour. Wood ducks, terns, eagles, blue herons, warblers, red-wing blackbirds–the list goes on. An extraordinary number of avian species inhabit Dundee Creek, skimming the waters, diving for fish, calling from the marshes, and soaring in the skies. The migratory patterns bring thousands of ducks and geese to the Creek each year.

Migration Tour The old timers say that once upon a time, there were so many ducks and geese on Dundee Creek that you could cross it walking on their backs. That’s no longer true, but the variety of species is still quite remarkable. Depending on the season, you can find black ducks, widgeons, mallards, shovelers, red-breasted mergansers, wood ducks, golden eyes, pintails, and old squaws, as well as Canada geese, and tundra swans. Mute swans are also present, but they may be permanent residents.

The Fishing Tour Kayak fishing is a whole new game. It’s sneaky and intrusive and downright unfair to the crafty bass, pickerel, perch, catfish and other finny denizens that lie in the nooks and crannies of Dundee Creek. No one knows where the lunkers hide out better than our friend Tracy, who will be your expert guide. Light tackle is suggested.

Sunset Tours No sunset is the same, but all offer unique, quiet moments to contemplate . . . whatever needs contemplating. Dundee Creek is a perfect place to watch that big old sun disappear behind the tree line.
