Most birders know about the public bird feeders at Sax-Zim Bog, and at Gooseberry State Park along the North Shore. There are now some new feeders which welcome your visit. If you often bird at McQuade Harbor, these bird feeders are less than a five minute drive along Scenic 61 at French River Lutheran Church on Ryan Road.  Our church is 300 yards up from the lake, and the hope is the feeders will attract birds migrating along the shores of Lake Superior. The feeders are located around back just off the parking lot near the campfire area. In warmer months bring a swimsuit and walk the short path from the campfire area to French River swimming hole! Watch out for young children. The church has an outdoor focused pre-school.

Fall / Winter 2022-23 Post Update: Hopefully Bert the Bear is now asleep. Thus, the feeders will all be up and filled by Saturday, December 3rd. Happy birding!
