Reed's Slough Wildlife Viewing Area opens in Flathead Valley

Onlookers cheered as Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks Director Christy Clark cut through a scarlet ribbon, officially opening Reed's Slough Wildlife Viewing Area to the public. At the end of the path, a wildlife viewing area overlooked Reed's Slough, a favored locale for songbirds and waterfowl. Yellow-headed blackbirds, robins and tree swallows painted the air with primary colors as mallards and buffleheads skirted the waters below.
