Lake Hope State Park & Zaleski State Forest are located 15 miles
from Nelsonville (Rte 33) off of Rte 278
At eBird Hotspots is a write up about these areas. There is
information about certain areas to look for Birds. Also included is the 20
Breeding Warblers in these areas & their specific habitats
I spent the early morning hours along a ridge in Zaleski State
Forest. I arrived at 5:09 am. It was quit! At 5:25 am the Whip-poor-wills
started singing. At 5:37 am the first songbird started singing (E Towhee)
By 5:44 the woods were full of Bird songs. At 6:10 am it became
quieter. There was a lot of birds still singing but nothing compared to
5:44 till 6:10 am.
Below is a list of some of the young & observations I saw on this
