Mike Higbee State Wildlife Area
This small State Wildlife Area doesn’t look like much, but the hedgerows around the maintenance buildings can attract large flocks of sparrows, and the reeds along the creek support Virginia Rail, Sora, Green Heron, Belted Kingfisher, and Common Yellowthroat. You might also see Blue Grosbeak, Orchard Oriole and Northern Bobwhite.
