Goose Pond Colony (Site # 38, Northeast Loop) is a public recreational development built on a peninsula on the northern side of Guntersville Lake south of Scottsboro. This location makes for some excellent birding, especially during the winter. Stop at one of the numerous viewing points to search the rafts of waterfowl for Common Goldeneyes, Hooded Mergansers, and Canvasbacks. At times, loons, grebes, and cormorants can be seen on the water, and a Bald Eagle may drop by for a meal now and again. Explore the nature trails in the area to see some of the numerous migrant and nesting songbirds ranging from Indigo Buntings to Eastern Kingbirds.
