Buckeye Lake | Pathfinders
February 2 | 10 a.m. - 1 p.m.
Ohio's oldest state park remains a beloved day-use destination. Buckeye Lake first served as a feeder lake for Ohio's canal system during the early 1800s. After the canal era, the new parklands began drawing tourists from around central Ohio. During the mid-20th century, visitors flocked to the park's amusement park and dance hall.
Today, the park's largest draw is the 3,100-acre lake which provides wonderful boating and fishing opportunities. Buckeye Lake's shoreline offers excellent habitat for waterfowl.
Good bird-watching opportunities exist especially during the spring and fall migrations. One of the state's largest great blue heron rookeries is situated on adjacent private land, but the birds can often be seen in the park.
Tips for birding Liebs Island
The picnic area, just to the left before crossing the (first) bridge, has a number of tall trees in which turkey vultures and, less frequently, bald eagles have been seen perched, as well as common species of smaller birds.
The area just over the bridge and to the left contains several boat ramps and a section of shore with a small pond surrounded by vegetation. Some waterfowl or herons are usually offshore and red-winged blackbirds are in the pond area in summer. Many swallow species frequent this and adjacent areas in season and cliff swallows have nested under the bridge.
Continue birding south of this section, south and west of the parking lot on the south side of Liebs Island Road. Killdeer are usually present in or around this parking lot. Waterfowl and herons, as well as gulls, are often present off this shoreline.
There is a small wooded area here and nearby a bench overlooking the water. Bring binoculars!
Trail-A track can be followed from the lot southwest along the channel to the south shore and then east paralleling the shore.
• Terrain- easy
• No fees or permits
