Where to see a Purple Martin in South Dakota

The Purple Martin is regularly recorded in the counties of 6 South Dakota state parks (eBird historical checklists). The strongest bets:

  1. Oakwood Lakes State Park
  2. Lake Hendricks State Recreation Area
  3. Richmond Lake State Recreation Area
  4. Union Grove State Park
  5. Palisades State Park
  6. Sandy Shore State Park

These are county-level records โ€” the species is documented in the area around each park, which is a strong steer rather than a guarantee for the park itself.
