South Dakota Birding"Hotspot"

Newton Hills State Park

Photo Location#3 -- Forest Edge

The ravine and Sergeant Creek fade away as you move south from the Horse Camp area, and you reach the edge of the thick deciduous forest.  A picnic shelter sits in a small opening, with a small bridge crossing the ravine.  This is a wonderful location for Indigo Buntings, Scarlet Tanagers, Rose-breasted Grosbeaks, Eastern Phoebes, Eastern Wood-pewees, Ovenbirds, and migrating warblers in the spring.   Nesting Blue-winged Warblers are often found near hear as well.
