April 18, 2015 Limberlost State Historic Site, Geneva, Indiana
Stockbridge Audubon and Robert Cooper Audubon held a joint field trip to two Limberlost Territory Nature Preserves today: Limberlost Swamp on the Jay/Adams County line, and Loblolly Marsh in Adams County. We finished the day with a brief stop at Rainbow Bend, another Limberlost preserve, to view a heron rookery; while there, we added Perigrine Falcon to our day list. Our total species count was 63.
