Blue Bird was designed for the physically challenged individual. Hard surface terrain takes the visitor to views of the beautiful Taskinas Creek.

Blue Bird Trail is a hard-surfaced handicapped trail. This trail was appropriately named. Be sure to look for the tiny red-chested Eastern Bluebirds which may be found perched upon their park-provided houses. Bluebirds are a species that have finally reestablished themselves after mans' use of agricultural toxins and deforestation. They are mostly year-round residents wherever sufficient winter food and water is available. These wonderful insect eaters give a showy wing-waving display when they fly. Their song is not a crisp as other thrushes and tends to have a rather nasal sound.
