    A new park, Bagdad Mill isn't established yet. When I stopped by yesterday, there were quite a few…read moreworkers doing...work, I guess. Taxpayer-funded work rarely looks like actual work. The grass is trying to take root, but there are a lot of bare, muddy patches scattered about. The park consists of a single large open area, transected by a paved walking path near the north end. The walking path also circles the perimeter of the entire park. There are numerous informational plaques set at regular intervals around the track that tell you about the history of the area and ecology. There are bike racks, benches, picnic tables, and charcoal grills spread out around the park, and numerous water spigots, in case you get thirsty. There's a small T-shaped wooden observation deck that juts out over the murky depths of the Blackwater River, although there's little to actually observe. The deck is too high to ever be used as a dock for boats, which is a poor design--the park would make a wonderful respite stop for a picnic during an afternoon of boating on the river. Just a few trees large enough to provide shade, as of yet. I can feature the park as a great venue for festivals and concerts, but it'd be BYOShade during the summer. Go check it out, walk around the track, and get some knowledge of the history of the area. It's nice to have an additional destination for a relaxing read.

    Nice little park to walk/jog or ride a bike. Paved walkway and a pier where you can view the water…read more They have benches, picnic tables and grills but like a previous reviewer stated, not much shade as of yet. The trees are still small. Lots of plaques with historical information.

Reed is wonderful to be around and he has taught me so much. The adoption process was so wonderful, everything I've wanted. All my needs were met. Reed makes sure all these birds go to great homes. As for the parrots, they are provided with daily enrichment, a great diet, other birds to interact with and places to hide . Misters in the heat and heat lamps in the cold. Nothing better than Uncle Sandy's!!!!!!!!!

    This place is a real hit if you love birds. It's a small, privately owned, bird sanctuary and I'm…read morereally glad we found it. The people that run it and care for the birds are first class fun. They give you a little cut of food of peanuts, cooked pasta and bread to feed the birds. You're given a very brief class on how not to get bitten when feeding them. These types of birds can inflict a nasty bite. It only costs ten dollars a person to walk through and it has to be cash. I donated another twenty bucks as well. The bird enclosures are spacious and the birds appear well fed and healthy. I really enjoyed the Emus, budgies and the funny chicken. There are even peacocks running around. One let me feed it peanuts and was very friendly. This place does a great service for surrendered birds nobody wants or knows how to take care of. Visiting funds continued care for these animals and I fully support the mission. It really is a fun experience.
