Places We Love to Bird - Lyons Park

Last month on Oct 25th we visited Lyons City Park, an old favorite of ours that we have birded at for over 10 years. I posted a blog about it here, and then we were there again last week on Nov 8th. Here is our bird list for that trip.  It occurred to me this park should be put in our category of "Places We Love to Bird", so here is the blog to make it official. This is the 8th place I have now bestowed this honor. To see the complete list of Places We Love to Bird, simple use the search window in the upper left-hand corner and put in "Places We Love". 

Bordering Lyons City Park to the north is the John Neal Linn County Park, which has a campground, but it is only seasonal. In addition, there are trails and ponds which seamlessly connect with Lyons City Park. When we originally started birding at Lyons City Park, we were not aware they were separate parks, and we just sort of lumped them together. Technically, eBird lists them separately, and we now make separate lists each time we are at the correct location. Here is our bird list for this last trip.
