Lake Erie Birding Trail
Covering the entire 312 miles of Ohio shoreline, from Conneaut to Toledo, the trail includes the lake’s greatest birding locales. The Lake Erie shore and its immediate environs offer some of the best birding in the Great Lakes region.
Tremendous numbers and diversity of migrant songbirds fill lakeside woodlands in spring and fall. Waterbirds galore pack marshes and the open lake waters, and interesting marsh birds breed in coastal wetlands. Winter brings hardy northern ducks, gulls, and raptors. There is never a dull season.
