Birds of Craighead Forest Park, AR

I set this gallery up to see how many species I could photograph in the Park/Nature Center. All pictures in this gallery were taken in Craighead Forest Park or the Nature Center. I will add species as I take them and upgrade a species photo when possible.

Haven't seen you for a month or so, but you took some great photos out in Carolina, so hope you had a nice trip. Last week, I stopped next to the fence at the 'beach area' at Craighead, and saw a pair of Moorhens. Observed them for 3 or 4 minutes, enough that I was quite sure that's what they were. But by the time I got back to my vehicle and got my camera, they had moved down the line...

Glad I asked you about the ruddy ducks, that I had seen the other day. Otherwise, I wouldn't had found out about this website. It's just great! My wife and I have birded south Texas and south Florida, and I guess all we really needed to do was drive about 3 miles from the house!

Thank you for sharing this with us! I'm new to the Jonesboro area and the Mississippi floodplain/flyway, so this is exciting for me to see documentation of the birds I might encounter here. I'm a Master's student at ASU studying Ornithology and have shared your photo link with Dr. James Bednarz, our ornithology professor.

Thanks for the photos. I visit the Park everyday and occasionally see a bird that interest me. Now, I have a website that will easily identify the bird.

I had a fun time birding with you the other day. Very nice photos, I remember the Screech Owl very well!

Nice! I've really got to hit Craighead in the spring more often!

These photos are absolutely the best assortment of AR birds I have seen lately. Stunning colection of thw warblers. Makes me want to camp out in Craighead State Forest this spring! Thank you very much for sharing.
