The W.K. Kellogg Bird Sanctuary is located 15 miles north of Kalamazoo near Gull Lake. Michigan State University's W.K. Kellogg Bird Sanctuary is one of North America's pioneer wildlife conservation centers. The Sanctuary was created in 1927 as a refuge for the Canada Goose and other migratory birds and was an important part of Trumpeter Swan restoration efforts in Michigan in the 1980's. The area remains an important stop for migrating birds and waterfowl. The Sanctuary offers 180-acres of diverse wildlife habitats situated around 40-acre Wintergreen Lake. Today, the Sanctuary continues its commitment to conservation through citizen science projects, internship opportunities, research, and education for families, schools and organized groups. The grounds are open to the public all year, Wednesday thru Sunday, but is closed Monday and Tuesday. For more information: https://birdsanctuary.kbs.msu.edu/visit/

This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”
