Beschrijving
Thompson Wildlife Management Area is an actively hunted area (Sunday visits are recommended when hunting is not allowed), and the habitat is in fantastic condition, reflecting the low white-tailed deer numbers. Many ground nesting birds, uncommon in other areas, are common here - such as Kentucky Warbler and Worm-eating Warbler. Cerulean Warbler is probably the most sought after bird in spring (it breeds here) and can be easily heard on the Appalachian Trail - which bisects the WMA.
