This horseshoe-shaped bend in the trail and the creek is where the Lower McAlpine Creek and McMullen Creek greenways meet. This attractive section of trail is a great place to see birds and other wildlife along the shores of the creek. These greenways pass through a floodplain and wetland environment that supports diverse wildlife; this area serves as a refuge for numerous bird species, and serves as the first known Great Blue Heron rookery. You also might see vibrant migratory birds like the American Redstart and the Scarlet Tanager.
