John - An excellent spot near Verona is the Olson Oak Woods SNA (aka the Madison School Forest) - good chance at many different forest-interior songbirds, possibly Barred Owls, plus a Great Blue Heron rookery. There's also a prairie on the edge of the woods. From Verona, take Hwy 69 south of Hwy 151 about a mile and turn right (west) on Riverside Rd. (there is a small wooden sign for the School Forest there) and go about 2 miles to Fritz Rd. (another small sign.) Go left (south) about a mile to the parking lot at the curve. It'll be buggy.
