The Long Meadow Lake Unit contains two birding hotspots, the Bass Ponds and Old Cedar Avenue Bridge. The best time for
birders to visit is from early March to late June when migrating waterfowl and warblers rest here.
King rail (Rallus elegans), a Minnesota threatened species, prothonotary warbler (Protonotaria citrea), and white-faced Ibis (Plegadis chihi) have been seen here.
