Friends of Walker Tavern

Friends of Walker Tavern The Friends of Walker Tavern formed in 2006 to help further the mission of Walker Tavern Historic Site in Lenawee County.

Once a stagecoach stop between Detroit and Chicago, the Walker Tavern Historic Site now offers visitors the chance to step back in time to Michigan’s frontier days. Already, the group has made a positive impact on Walker Tavern and the community.

The Recreation Passport also helps to maintain the buildings and grounds at Cambridge Junction Historic State Park and Walker Tavern.

When you purchase your Recreation Passport you are helping purchase and preserve habitat for hundreds of species of birds across Michigan. The Recreation Passport not only allows you access to thousands of acres of State Land, but also helps ensure that land will be available for future generations.

This week’s bird is the Pileated Woodpecker, the largest species of woodpecker in North America.
These birds can be up to 20” long with a 2 foot wing span. They require large areas of woods to find food and build their nests. They build their nests by carving out holes in trees. The next year the hole will be used by another species of bird or animal for a home.

Lake Hudson Recreation Area is a year round home to at least 2 pairs of these magnificent birds. They can be seen in the wooded areas of Lake Hudson, as well as around the use areas such as the beach and boat launch.
