The Hutchinson Tract of the Rappahannock River Valley National Wildlife Refuge consists of 727 acres of restored grasslands and mixed hardwood forests that complement the forests buffering Mount Landing Creek. Blue grosbeaks, eastern meadowlarks, and bobwhite quail inhabit the grasslands, while tanagers, orioles, and warblers are found in the forests. An accessible pier and canoe/kayak launch provide access to the creek, where bald eagles, belted kingfishers, and wintering waterfowl may be seen. Other wildlife includes box turtles, red and gray foxes, cottontail rabbits, and raccoons.
