Prairie Lakes Audubon will hold its first in-person gathering since last summer at 12 p.m. Sunday, June 13, at Spruce Hill County Park, 13148 Spruce Hill Park Road NE near Miltona.
The group will gather for a picnic at the shelter house down by the river at the end of the park's driveway. Participants should bring their own meal and non-alcoholic beverages.
Following the picnic, Tom Ries will lead the group on a bird outing. Last year, a black billed cuckoo, an olive sided flycatcher, and a common yellowthroat were seen at this park, and a yellow-bellied sapsucker is also a possibility.
"We never know what we will see, but we will have a good time as we walk the trails," the society said in a news release.
Birdwatchers should bring their binoculars.
