Mark Your Calendars for October 11th!!
Mark your calendars for October 11th! Join us for an educational program on migration followed by an evening / sunset bird walk at Northerly Island. We're hoping to get lucky and see the state-endangered Short-eared Owls that have frequented Northerly Island over the last several migratory seasons. The arrival of the Short-eared Owl is a testament to the incredible grassland restoration that has occurred at Northerly over the last several years.
The Chicago Park District and Flint Creek Wildlife have worked together to bring you daytime bird walks on Northerly Island in the past. These bird walks have been a really good time for beginning and intermediate birders as our bird walks are led by experienced birders that can help you learn how to spot and identify the Island's birds. October 11th will be our first sunset bird walk.
Don't forget your binoculars and field guide if you have them. If not, then the Chicago Park District has some binoculars at Northerly Island that they will lend you for the evening.
See you then,
Dawn
