About this event

    The group will meet trip leader, Dan Barriball, at the Wilson Shelter parking lot at 8:00am to look for spring migrants. Total time about 2-3 hours. The diversity of habitats within the state park hosts many bird species, and during spring migration, migrants pile up on the southern shore of Lake Michigan. All of this helps to make the park Indiana's most diverse birding hotspot.

    This walk is free and open to the public, but registration is required as capacity is limited. Click on tickets to register through Eventbrite.
