Creamer's Field Migratory Waterfowl Refuge is an 1,800-acre (7.3 km²) bird sanctuary located near Fairbanks in the U.S. state of Alaska. It consists of wetlands, fields, and forests, which surround the former farm of Charlie Creamer (d. 1974), a local pioneer dairy farmer who saved waste grains from his barn to feed migrating birds. After Creamer's death, the area became a state sanctuary associated with the Alaska Bird Observatory.
