July Bird Walk - Korth Park
A small group had a great time in the restored prairie and along the shore of Rock Lake during our walk in Korth Park. A highlight was a pair of Northern Harriers who were hunting the area continuously as we walked. Besides other prairie birds, we observed many species of dragonflies and took close looks at a large number of prairie plants.
If you couldn't be with us for this walk, we hope you can join us next time!
