PPW-W 045 Bosque Bottoms
Site open for day use only.
From the intersection of SR 6 and SR 22 in Meridian go north on SR 22 for 0.4 miles to the entrance to Bosque Bottoms on the right.
Home to some of the world’s best barbeque, each year this grassy field on the banks of the Bosque River hosts the National Championship Barbeque Cookoff. Although the fields of Bosque Bottoms are covered by barbeque cookers and consumers each August, the rest of the year the area is left to the birds. The vast open grassy areas host Scissor-tailed Flycatchers, Eastern Bluebirds, Lark Sparrows and Dickcissels. Look to the woodlands along the river for a different suite of birds, including Red-bellied Woodpecker, Great-crested Flycatcher and Indigo Bunting. In spring the area is ablaze with wildflowers and their attendant butterflies.
