Lake Barkley State Resort Park and Land Between The Lakes NRA are pleased to again present a wildlife viewing opportunity dedicated to birding. Experience the peak of songbird migration, as our birding guides offer identification and viewing tips and help search out prothonotaries, parulas, and pewees. Many non-breeding warblers venture along Lake Barkley at this time, so we will keep our binoculars ready for that special life lister. Discover birding hot spots around Lake Barkley and Land Between The Lakes by joining us on one or both of our hot spot tours. Tours are $10/person and depart at 8a.m. to explore the northern end of Land Between The Lakes, and 1p.m. to explore the southern end. Tour sizes will be limited to allow the best viewing opportunities, so make your reservations early by calling 270-924-2020.
In conjunction with Birding on Barkley, Lake Barkley will be hosting Birding and Beer, an evening of bird trivia, beer, and an opportunity to meet fellow birders. Birders and non-birders will both enjoy this event as topics will range from bird ID to birds in sports. Bird related beers will also be available for purchase during this event. This event is free to attend, but reservations are required. Teams can be from 2 – 8 people and prizes will be awarded to the winning team, trivia starts at 7p.m. at Lake Barkley Lodge.
