We will also check out the nearby bird blinds newly installed by the Bureau of Forestry.Update:  The leader of the Camp Michaux Recognition and Development project for the Cumberland County Historical Society has volunteered to lead us on a historical tour, which will follow our birding outing at Pine Grove Furnace State Park.   Please join us for this unique opportunity to learn about the natural and human history of the area.
