About Isaacson Bay
An excellent shorebird site just east of Alpena. During spring and fall migrations, shorebirds can be present along the rocky beach, and a variety of gulls, including Glaucous Gull and Great Black-backed Gull, usually forage here. Isaacson's Bay is located east of the Lafarge Corporation cement plant along Misery Bay Road (identified as North Point Road on some maps). Look for a signpost indicating Isaacson's Bay on the right (south) side of the road. This is the north end of Thunder Bay, although some maps will identify this location as Whitefish Bay. Several pulloffs provide excellent places from which to scan the beach for waterfowl and shorebirds. Source: Chartier, Allen T., and Jerry Ziarno. A Birder's Guide To Michigan.
