Pigeon Swamp State Park, National Natural Landmark and state park in South Brunswick, New Jersey.
The 1,078-acre park includes open ponds, wetlands, and hardwood forests within the Lawrence Brook watershed of Middlesex County.
The land belonged to Ann Pidgeon in the 18th century, and in 1780 workers started the Great Ditch project to drain the swamp for farming.
The park stands as a protected natural area where visitors observe native species like kestrels, red-tailed hawks, and white-tailed deer in their habitats.
The park offers seasonal deer hunting, and visitors must wear orange clothing during these periods while exploring the marked walking paths.
Dallenbach Sand Company's 1945 dredging operation created a large lake that remains visible from Deans Rhode Hall Road.
