Find a quiet spot to sit and watch the sky shift. The refuge is free and open for birding and wildlife viewing, so take this time to notice the resacas and the animals before the light changes.
20:11
Stay put as the golden light begins. At 19:53 the sun starts its final descent toward the WNW. This is the key moment. The light softens the landscape and highlights the wetlands.

Let the sunset fade. The sun sets at 20:26. Once the light is gone, the refuge remains a peaceful place to end your evening among the species that call this sanctuary home.
