two days into my Utah trip I stopped early enough to camp at a state park in Kansas. It’s a big park in compassing a sprawling reservoir not far from Wichita. Of course I picked the campground at the most popular use area since that is where my gps took me. The blue stem point is where the birds are which I discovered exploring the north side of the park after pitching my tent. It’s a beautiful spot with prairie on one side and the lake shore on the other. There are numerous scissor-tailed fly catchers, so much fun to watch, orchard orioles, bobwhites, and dicksissels and as I write the night hawks are coming out. There’s not a camper here and the birds are full of activity. Next time I’ll know where to set up my camp.
