Columbus Audubon

It may seem like mid-Summer, but some birds are already done nesting and heading south. Join us as we scout for shorebirds, herons, swallows, kingbirds, and other early migrants in the wetlands of Delaware County. We'll have our choice of spots at Alum Lake with its great upper basin off Hogback Rd; Delaware Wildlife Area and its fabulous Leonardsburg marsh; and the famous upper reaches of Hoover Reservoir off Wiese Rd and Area N in Galena. The itinerary will change depending on water levels and the latest reports; if the reservoir levels are too high, we might even make a quick trip up to Big Island Wildlife Area. In any event, we'll be on the prowl for these early migrants in their favored wetland haunts.

We'll carpool from the Westerville Community Center.  Bring hats, sunblock, and bug spray; it's still Summer after all.
