Lakes, woodlands, ancient sand dunes, native prairie, and wetlands make up the 193 acres of this preserve. We’ll explore several habitat areas looking for fall migrants, lingering summer nesters, and year-round residents.
Meet in the parking lot next to the main meeting cabin.
The walk is on natural surfaces (dirt trails and wood chip and gravel paths). There is a porta potty at the parking lot.
The bird walk is free and open to everyone. New birders are welcome! No registration required.
Leaders: Judy Johnson and Linda Hickey
