Description of the Land
|
Waterfowl Paradise Size: 1,104 acres of prime waterfowl habitat and 240 acres of improved pasture Location: This property is located south and east of Burns, Or. It is about 2 miles from the Malheur Wildlife Refuge to the north.Elevation: 4100 Water: Water is from the West Fork of the Silvies River. It enters the property and is then distributed throughout the 1100 acres by dams, diversions, ditches, and overflows. It will come in the spring, stay through part of the summer and dissipate into the ground towards fall. This leaves ponds, islands, sloughs, waterways, and the river with water. It also leaves quite a bit of dry ground to set up viewing areas, blinds, or areas in which to hunt pheasants. Also water from this area is funneled into the 240 acres as it is used from the 1100 acres. It floods part of it for bird, deer, and antelope habitat right next to the house. This ranch is in the transition stage from ranch to wetland. It is in conjunction with the Federal Fish and Wildlife and Ducks Unlimited. They have put about a million dollars worth of work into this to enhance the wetland habitat. As such they have a permanent easement to continue to en- hance this project and keep it as a wetland forever. This does not keep the owner from hunting, selling or doing whatever is needed on the property as long as it embraces the spirit of the easement. Anything done on the property like cattle grazing, planting grains for birds, or working with the land is a joint effort and as such is done by working with the agencies involved. Different crops can be seeded on the wetland grounds as long as they are shown to help the waterfowl. On the 240 acre site you can do anything you want as to vegetation or crops. It is in crested wheat now and it is used by bird big game alike. Rye, barley, or even corn could be put in this area to bring in more pheasants, antelope, and deer. Also, geese and ducks would be using it. The Refuge is just two miles away and this land gets some huge bucks . Even if you put in some dryland alfalfa it would pull in a large amount and variety of birds and animals.Wildlife: Of course when you get this type of habitat you get an amazing amount and variety of both upland and migratory birds. Different types of ducks, geese, and any type of water birds will be there at one time or another. It is a secluded place with easy access through a county maintained road. There are both dark and light geese so limits are pretty plentiful for geese.You can go just about anytime to it and see an unbelievable amount of birds, deer and antelope. There are also predators that can be controlled and just plain beauty in the landscape. The grass is extremely abundant and was a great place for all of the cattle that used to graze here. That makes super cover for nesting , breeding, and hiding. Thisranch is exciting for the person who loves birds, water, seclusion, big game animals, and panoramic views. Taxes: $1217
There is a double wide manufactured home on the 240 acres that is not part of the wetland project. This is a great place to come and stay while you hunt or just view the birds. It has a house well and stock well on the property. This property is adjacent and is available for purchase for $350,000
