if you like an easy stroll in the morning, this is the place to go. We saw everything from hummingbirds to quail to Pelicans.

I'm a photographer, not a birder, so I was a little disappointed I couldn't get closer photos. But, this has to be a birder paradise. I saw many different birds on my 1 1/2 tour, mostly water based birds. There are seven different ponds with paths around. There is a bridge to a platform in the middle of one pond. It's quiet, there are several viewing benches, and blinds, as well as a very friendly staff. I was on my mobility scooter, and the gentleman at the desk gave me a phone number to call if I got stuck, and he would come get me in a golf cart. I had no access problems by the way. The place is very well maintained and wel worth the effort.

We had the pleasure of experiencing a wonderful, peaceful and wildlife filled adventure at Henderson. Within a short drive to the eastern side of Las Vegas, the Preserve is an oasis from the bright lights.They have walking paths around numerous ponds (including a couple of viewing platforms that offer an array of opportunities to view bird life! In the parking lot, you may be greeted by the buzz of Hummingbirds! (My husband was lucky to get some photos!) And,as soon as you enter into the preserve, you are greeted with a couple of picnic tables and hummingbird feeders (with an excellent opportunity to see "guests" vying for a meal). We were also greeted by a group of Gambel's Quail darting around under the feeders. There were birds too numerous to mention!The is no fee but check out the items that are for sale in the building. We were fortunate to have folks available to answer our birding questions. Thank you to these special people that are willing to share their expertise and their time!You will not be disappointed with this Preserve!

I am an avid birder and didn't know what to expect in the middle of the desert. We live in the Pacific Flyway so I'm spoiled. This Preserve consisted of 5 viewing ponds. It is wheelchair accessible with paved roads. The docent knew which ponds were active at that time. I added the Horned Grebe to my life list. The preserve closes at 2 so go early.

This quaint little find is a great place to view birds of the desert southwest. There are many species of ducks, egrets, blue herons and other migrating birds. Make sure you take your driver's license to you can sign out a pair of binoculars at the front desk.

I read about this place in our hotel and stopped by for a visit. The person greeting me was very friendly and even had binoculars to lend to me. There are lots of benches along the trails and, of course, lots of birds to see!

Beautiful habitat for local birds and water fowl, and migrating birds that are passing through to other destinations.
-
In nice weather this is a good way to get your walking in. Bring binoculars. Always something to see.
-
Added a few to our list. Wished we had more than 20 minutes. They have binoculars to borrow. Nice paved loop for wheelchair passenger or those needing level path. The signs will get you to it. GPS is a bit off.

Lovely ponds, birds, and landscape. Relaxing place to take a walk without worrying about cars. The staff is knowledgeable and more than willing to answer your questions.
