Lewis and Clark Caverns State Park
Description:
Last Chance Audubon Birding Field Trip. Tom Forwood will lead a 3 hour program/walk starting at 7:30 p.m. The nighthawks will be in full swing and poorwills are vocal off and on all summer. Young owls are usually begging pretty loudly at this time as well. Starting before dark means the group should see towhees, bluebirds, Rock Wrens and Dusky Flycatchers with little trouble. Bats could be mixed in as well if people are interested in that. Meet at the Park’s Main Visitor Center. Group size is limited to 12, so be sure to contact Tom ahead of time at tforwood@mt.gov to reserve a spot. Keep in mind there is a campground in the Park, which is a convenient place to stay for people who don't want to drive home after the program.
