Madison County Public Lake (Site # 28, Central Loop) is best known for its fishing, but it also serves as an excellent introduction to northern Alabama's birdlife. Scan the lake for wintering waterfowl or perhaps a family of resident Canada Geese and their downy young. The woods around the lake host a variety of warblers and vireos during migration while resident favorites include Northern Cardinals and Blue Jays. From time to time, Ospreys may drop in for some fishing, and you never know when a vagrant gull or tern may show up unexpectedly.
