Yes, Don is right. This flooded field is a awesome place to see all kinds of waterfowl. But the the first time I went here the water nearly went over the road. But don't worry now because there is only a small " pond " left. The road is generally quite, and you can pull over on the side of the road and look at the birds. A scope is a good idea for the site as well.
