Target Rock National Wildlife Refuge, National Wildlife Refuge in Lloyd Harbor, Long Island, United States.
The refuge spans 80 acres of mature oak-hickory forest, rocky beach, brackish pond, and vernal ponds on the north shore of Long Island.
The Eberstadt family donated the land to establish Target Rock National Wildlife Refuge in 1967, transforming their garden estate into a protected area.
The refuge integrates into the Long Island National Wildlife Refuge Complex, managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for environmental conservation.
Visitors can access the refuge from sunrise to sunset for a fee of 4 dollars per vehicle, with annual passes available for 12 dollars.
The brackish pond experiences daily tidal flooding from Huntington Bay, creating specific conditions for black ducks and smooth cordgrass growth.
