The tree is a cottonwood and is ideally located for eagles. There are few tall tress on the Samish Flats as much of the land is agricultural fields or too inundated with water both fresh and salt to support large trees. The perch provides excellent views over the nearby Fish and Wildlife lands, the Samish River and Samish and Alice Bays with Padilla Bay not far away either.
