Ed Lisenby Public Fishing Lake, Ozark area
A deep-water lake surrounded by Spanish moss–draped woods, this site is conveniently located to Ozark. It is well-visited and well-maintained; look for songbirds in the surrounding woods and waders in the grassy, marshy inlets. Wetland-loving songbirds are present in the woods, swallows and waders around the lake, and occasionally shorebirds at the small retention pond. The three-mile trail surrounding the lake is well worth a visit for its convenience and the likelihood of finding good birds, especially in migration. The lake is closed Wednesdays, and December and January.
