Site Description:

Pascuzzi Pond Preserve is surrounded by industrial development. In 1988, working with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, the reed canarygrass dominated wetland was converted to an open water pond with islands, an emergent wetland edge and berms on the north, west and south sides of the pond. Today, the wetland is home to great blue heron, hooded merganser, ring necked ducks, wood duck, cinnamon teal, Northern harrier and red tail hawk.
