Cayugabirders - There seems to be some confusion about exactly what the Muckrace Flats are. On the new Montezuma Wetlands Complex map (for sale in the Visitor Center store and at the MAC), there is the following statement for the location marked as #17: Muckrace Flats (NMWMA): "This 5-acre shallow-water wetland is managed to provide stopover habitat for the annual spring and fall migrations of out most ambitious migrants, the shorebirds. Much of the funding was provided from donations gathered in the 2008 Muckrace, a birding competition organized by the Friends of the Montezuma Wetlands Complex."
I hope this is helpful.
