Warblers and Wildflowers Weekend At Lake Barkley April 16-17
CADIZ, Ky. – Southern breezes and gentle rains bring out wildflowers and warblers. Visit Lake Barkley State Resort Park April 16-17 to search for toothwort, trout lilies and trilliums during Warblers and Wildflower Weekend.
Scan the treetops for parulas, prothonotaries and pewees. Experience the immense natural diversity of the Land Between the Lakes region as guests travel by van and foot in search of warblers and wildflowers.
Lake Barkley State Resort Park, in partnership with Land Between The Lakes National Recreation Area, will present a weekend of activities in search of spring migrants and spring bloomers. Trips include family friendly events, kayaking for birds, wildflower hikes and birding hot spot tours.
