SPRING BIRDING AT SMITH LAKE

Join FAS field trip leader Darcy Thomas for a morning of birdwatching in Kila on Thursday, April 13 from 8 am until noon. The group will walk a portion of the paved Great Northern Historical Trail along Smith Lake before driving around the lake, stopping at the boat launch and other
pull outs along the way to view birds. Smith Lake is a complex of large, shallow wetlands and marsh, surrounded by stands of willow and other shrubs as well as conifers. The group will be looking for ducks, herons, hawks, and eagles. A vault toilet is available at the Fishing access site. Bring your binoculars and a spotting scope if you have one.
