While Gladys Russell is a wildlife preserve with excellent opportunities for bird watching and photography, it also offers a number of low intensity uses including hiking, picnicking, horseback riding, and fishing. Water and sanitary facilities have been added, making activity by larger groups, such as family reunions and educational field trips, possible.
Fishing Dock at Southwest corner of Lake
Central to the preserve is a substantial lake that
has been stocked with Bass, Catfish and Bluegill. The condition of
the water is maintained with two demonstration projects that aerate the
water to help with the bacterial breakdown of plant matter entering the
lake from surrounding vegetation and aquatic plants.
Bird houses and duck boxes are in place to draw nesting pairs.
