Yes, that would be a good time for birding. You'll find lots of geese and ducks, wading birds (herons and egrets), and wintering shorebirds.

There are multiple places in the refuge for accessing the shoreline, so you'll want to stop here and there. Get a map from the visitor center or go online to look at a map and descriptions of the access points.
