Must-Sees at Canaan Valley National Wildlife Refuge

2. The Blackwater River flows through the Canaan Valley Wildlife Refuge and is home to wildlife unaccustomed to human activity. As you paddle through the center of Cannon Valley, you will explore spots you can’t reach any other way and might come up close to beavers, deer, and bears.
3. The rare wildlife and plants that call the Canaan Valley Wildlife Refuge home provide many opportunities for animal watching and photography. In the summer, the female bobolink will start making a nest to protect her eggs. You can identify the male bobolink as the only bird in the U.S with yellow on its belly and white on its back. You can also identify them by listening for their unique song.
