Early Birds Walk: Blackwater Falls
August 19, 2022 @ 8:00 am - 10:00 pm
Early Birds Walk with leader: Aaron Graham
Join Friends of Blackwater in association with Blackwater Falls State Park for a morning of birding around the trails around Pendleton Lake as we look for flocks of migrating warblers mixed in with the resident birds of Blackwater Falls. We’ll get started at 8:00 a.m. at the Nature Center on Friday, August 19, 2022.
Late August is peak migration for several species of warblers and this riparian and younger forest type habitats makes it a perfect location to look for many of these species such as Ovenbirds, Black-and-White Warblers, American Redstarts, Chestnut-sided Warblers, and Canada Warblers and some more uncommon migrants like Blue-winged Warbler and Mourning Warbler around this date.
Wear appropriate hiking gear for being out on the maintained trails around the lake. Grass will still likely be wet from the morning dew so plan accordingly. Fee free. YPP
