Bayfront Park has many species of local and migratory birds that visit in the spring and fall to take advantage of its fresh water and to shelter themselves among the trees and reeds. Brown Pelicans are ever-present, soaring on the wind-wave formed as bay breezes blow up against and over dense stands of pines. Gulls, terns and Double-crested Cormorants roost on the pilings. From the parking area, walk the boardwalk to an inland marsh. Look closely for Least Bittern and Clapper Rail. During fall and winter, Virginia Rail and Sora are regular, but secretive. Marsh Wren, Common Yellowthroat and Boat-tailed Grackle are also common.

Bayfront Park is owned and managed by Mobile County Department of Parks and Recreation. There are picnic tables and public restrooms available.
