May 16 | 8:30 a.m. – ?
Salamonie River State Forest is a beautiful 950-acre forest in Wabash and Huntington Counties. It should be a great place to see some migrants, other birds returning to their breeding grounds, and those who never left! Salamonie Lake, directly adjacent to the forest, hosts a variety of waterfowl on its 2,600+ acres.
On Saturday, May 16, at 8:30 a.m., we’ll meet at the Hominy Ridge Picnic area in the Salamonie River State Forest. (See map; the forest and Hominy Ridge are highlighted in pink at the top left corner. In Google Maps, search for “Hominy Ridge Lake.”)
We’ll bird in the forest before exploring other areas around the reservoir. Be sure to bring a water bottle, and anyone who’d like to stick around for a picnic should bring a sack lunch, too.
