Birdwatchers have identified more than 240 species of birds here; outdoor viewing platforms by the lake will get you closer to the action. DeSoto is open during daylight hours. The Visitor Center is open daily, 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m., closed major holidays. Portions of the refuge are closed to public use October 14-April 15.
