Black Diamond Mines:
a good time to visit is in the spring when the wild flowers are in bloom and the birds are out
and about in numbers. Look around on your drive up to the parking lot. Many
birds can be seen right in the picnic area and located by listening for their
songs / calls. Woodpeckers often tap on the trunks of trees when looking for food or building a
nest hole. The following pictures were all taken at Black Diamond
Mine. Click on a picture for a large version. (Large images average 600k in
