CLEAR LAKE STATE PARK – Lake County is the perfect area for developing lovely gardens for birds.


In “Garden Birds of America,” a 45-minute film, George H. Harrison is the perfect guide for garden tours from New England to the West Coast.


At 1:30 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 1, in the visitor center auditorium, you will see the rewards of creating a wild bird sanctuary in your own backyard, as well as see many of America’s most interesting and beautiful garden bird species.


The local O’Connor garden also includes a solar powered water fountain and attractive plantings for each season.


There is no entrance fee to the park for attending scheduled programs, walks or visiting the museum.


The visitor center, including the gift shop, where new items are always to be found, will open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday throughout the summer.


Guided walks take place on the second and fourth Sunday at 8:30 a.m.


Visit www.clearlakestatepark.org for great photos, activity schedule and park information.
