Thanks for help Great River Greening tosupport early-stage restoration work on a recently acquired new addition toFrontenac State Park.Located on the Mississippi River, Frontenac is abirdwatcher's paradise.It'sone of the best spots in the country to view birds migrating in the spring and fall. More than 260 species of birds have been recorded here. No wonder: Lake Pepin's diverse habitats --bluffland, prairie, floodplain forest and upland hardwood forest -- attractnumerouswarblers, hawks,waterfowland shorebirds.
