National Park Overview
Stillwater National Wildlife Refuge is located in the Lahontan Valley, - the community of Fallon, sixty miles east of Reno.

The Stillwater wetlands are well-known to birders -s this area has been designated a site of international importance by the Western Hemispheric Shorebird Reserve Network because of the hundreds of thousands of shorebirds, such as Long-billed dowitcher, Black-ecked stilt and American avocet passing through during migration.

Also listed as a Globally Important Bird Area by the American Bird Conservancy, more than 280 species have been sighted in the area. These tremendously rich and diverse wetlands attract more than a quarter million waterfowl -s well as over 20,000 other water birds, including American white pelicans, Double-crested cormorants, White-faced ibis and several species of egrets, herons, gulls and terns.
