Pine Creek Bird Habitat

Pine Creek Gamebird Habitat Area is a 700-acre grassland / old field complex purchased in 1993 for pheasant hunting. In 1996, Ducks Unlimited and the Indiana DNR combined to restore the wetlands to about 150 acres of lowland. The wetlands were created by damming a drainage system that drained the whole basin. A variety of shallow wetland habitats developed as the marsh community has reestablished, including emergent marsh (especially cattails and marsh grasses), mudflats, and wet grassy meadows. Located in Benton County Indiana.
