Hello all! Spring migration is in full swing and lots of folks are visiting Peveto Woods and rightly so. However, if you've visited Peveto, you also know how limited the parking is. BUT, did you know there is extra parking right around the corner? If you continue on Gulf View Rd. past the entrance to Peveto and turn left (on this map it's labeled Cameron parish 557) there is a large lot on the left that is available for parking. Given the number of people that will likely be in and out of the sanctuary for the next couple of weeks, and given how narrow the roads in the sanctuary are, it's wise to plan to park here *first* instead of driving into the sanctuary.
Charlotte is going to be adding more signage to help to make folks aware of the additional parking, but please feel free to pass this along to birding groups and folks who you know may visit. Last Sunday there was an exceptional turnout of birds and birders but the parking was a mess, with people parking smack in the road, on the trailheads, as well as on top of some of the plants that our volunteers just installed!
