CALLING ALL BIRD NERDS!!!

Yellow-Rumped Warbler

Rise and shine!  Have you ever wanted to get outside at sunrise and walk around in the morning chill with Mr. Moore while he freaks out over every bird he sees?  Well your chance has arrived.  Early morning bird walks will be starting soon.  With our late spring this year, there aren't a whole lot of migrants back yet, but they'll be coming soon.  So get your binoculars polished up and the coffee brewing.  We will meet at the Sheboygan Marsh Tower on designated days around 6:00am.  All transportation is on your own, this is not an official school field trip, so get your rides figured out ahead of time.

Lake Sturgeon Spawning in the Wolf River

It's that  time of year again when the Lake Sturgeon start their upstream trek to the Shiocton and Shawno areas to spawn. As of today it doesn't seem there is a lot of activity, but based on the forecasted warmup and historical behavior, they should be congregating by mid to late next week (April 27 - 30).  If it stays cool, that will be pushed back a little into early May.  Check the DNR website below for more information.
