We bid farewell to the Rio Negro mountains and start the two hour trip back to Comayagua. After resting up a night at Hotel Casagrande, we tackle the six hour, winding, bumpy ride from Comayagua to Copan, Honduras. The ride was filled (as were several barf bags) with intense motion sickness. Was it worth it? You bet! (The kids may disagree…)
Salt Lake is the only alkaline lake in the state of MN (1/3 as salty as sea water) and attracts a remarkable variety of birds. Located in Lac Qui Parle County, this 312 acre lake is known as one of the state’s top birding spots, supporting a large diversity of shorebirds and waterfowl.
It was through Mae Nisbit Peterson’s interest in birds that Salt Lake, was preserved as she brought this area to the attention of naturalists.
