Spend a couple of hours with Gerri in search of this bubbly grassland bird. It’s Bobolink breeding season and the boys should be out in full force putting on a show! Begin hiking to the top of Apple Hill where numerous sightings have occurred. Then drive over to Topsmead State Forest aka Bobolink Central, meandering the sweeping fields and forests around this venerable State Park. Bring a snack and some water. 8:00 a.m., Meet at the Apple Hill Trailhead (not the Laurel Hill Trail) 116 East Shore Road. Limited to 15.
