We need to ask for a pathway to that area.  That would better for the bird watchers as well as the other criters in the fields.  A single path along the tree line to the south would suffice.  I could also envision a platform there for greater visibility across the entire wetland area.  The platform could be located just in front of the treeline and should not interfere with the life in the wetlands.
