Does your wife shoot photos too? Mine got me started.It may have been Magee Marsh that they were talking about. It's right next to Lake Erie over by Toledo and believe it or not it's one of the top 10 best birding sites in the U.S. They are known for a spring migration of all different types of warblers. The only problem is that they allow wild turkey hunting on site, and you have to be careful where you're out walking over there. Of course the genius politicians who allowed that made the turkey season coincide with the warbler migration.
It's on my list of places to go this summer / fall along with Indiana Dunes national refuge. Indiana Dunes is one of the top 5 in the U.S.
I'm on vacation the first week of July and my wife and I are going to Brown County State Park for 5 days. 16,000 acre nature preserve and it's known for birders. Can't wait!
Here's a wild Iris from Eagle Marsh...
