Immerse yourself in nature at the Black Bayou Lake National
Wildlife Refuge. This majestic 4,500-acre expanse of lake,
swamp, bottomland hardwoods, mixed pine and hardwood
uplands is a wildlife habitat with all manner of plant species
and everything from small alligators and turtles to coyote,
deer and a wide variety of fowl.
Delight in the beauty of
herons, egrets, orioles
and red-winged blackbirds
from the wildlife pier
or bird blind. Walk on a
nature trail that meanders
through a forested
wetland. Marvel at the
quiet beauty of the 1,600acre lake from your rented
canoe with stately cypress
and tupelo trees towering
overhead.
Here’s one gem of a museum! Occupying one of the last
standing buildings from the World War II Selman Field Army Air
Corps Navigation School, this totally renovated facility is filled
with more exhibits and artifacts than one would ever believe.
The Visitors’ Center, a
restored 1880s Acadian
house, offers interactive
exhibits and a nature
shop. Behind the center is
a covered amphitheater
for educational programs.
Visit the Aquarium Room
with live exhibits of native
fish, reptiles, amphibians,
and a Discovery Room with a variety of learning stations and
reading materials. Other features include an arboretum with
150 labeled Louisiana native tree and woody shrub species,
a photo blind, boat launch, canoeing, year-round fishing, and
seasonal hunting opportunities.
The aviation portion highlights three historical chapters in the
nation’s and Monroe’s history: the Navigation School (largest
in the country) that trained over 15,000 navigators during the
World War II years; the birth of Delta Airlines from a regional
crop dusting service; and Louisiana native General Claire Lee
Chennault’s Flying Tigers fighter squadron.
The military portion is portrayed through sections of the
museum representing the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and
Coast Guard. Each section houses an abundance of weaponry,
uniforms, photographs, documents and other artifacts
depicting World War I to present day with heavy emphasis on
World War II. The exhibits employ an oral history approach for
describing these times. Local heroes from Northeast Louisiana
are profiled from their days in the military, providing dramatic
first-person accounts.
In a separate room is an extensive exhibit showing the life
and times of General Claire Lee Chennault and his famous
WWII Flying Tigers. The museum features an exhibit with an
elaborate collection of Nazi Germany artifacts and a growing
outdoor display of WWII aircraft and vehicles. A state-of-theart theater and conference center are also on site.
