Early Arrivals - Migration

23 Mar 2014

Late March is the time when the first migrating birds of spring move through the Lake James area on their way to the northern breeding grounds. Park Ranger Jamie Cameron leads the group in search of northern Parula, Blue-Gray Gnatcatcher, Black-and-White Warbler and a host of other early migrants. Wear clothing appropriate for the weather and bring binoculars and a field guide if you have them. Meet at the Holly Discovery Trail parking area at 9 a.m. Call 828-584-7728 for more information.
