BIRDING & WILDLIFE VIEWING

The birds let us know that Spring is really coming. Northern harriers on our prairie are performing their aerial courtship displays, migrating waterfowl are stopping by for a rest on our two ponds and streams of Sandhill cranes have been seen often on their way north. Bluebirds are being seen and are checking out the numerous houses on the property. We hope we will hear the Bob white call of the quail in the spring but fear that the many days of ice-covered vegetation may have done many of them in. With the habitat we provide for them they will surely make a comeback.

  • Birds and other wildlife abound on the private forty-acre tract surrounding A Little Log Cabin in the Woods, which is specially managed for enhanced wildlife habitat. The bird feeder near the front porch gets lots of avian traffic.
     
  • We are directly in the migration path of the Sand Hill Crane. Sightings in the hundreds are frequent during October, November and December, and again during the northern migration during February and March.
     
  • Patoka Lake is home to nesting bald eagles and sponsors an Eagle Watch program in mid-January. Call for information.
     
  • The Patoka Lake Visitor Center has guided nature walks.
     
  • Common sightings at the cabin include a pair of flying squirrels, wild turkeys, grey fox and owls of several species.
     
  • Binoculars and bird identification guide available.
