Fowler Island is the sole island owned by Milford, Connecticut north of I-95 in the Housatonic River.[1] The island is north of the Moses Wheeler Bridge, and south of the Igor I. Sikorsky Memorial Bridge.[2] The island is uninhabited except for occasional visits by anglers, bird watchers and duck hunters; all transportation to the island is by boat.

The island's maximum elevation is approximately 7 feet (2.1 m).[3] The mercury content was evaluated in 2003 at ~300 to 5000 ppb.[4]
