Description

Ready to get back outside? Join Friends of the Forest Preserves for an early bird walk at Whistler Woods. As we get ready to welcome spring and as the weather warms up (hopefully!), we begin to make our way back to Whistler Woods to check out the birds residing and passing by. Whistler Woods borders the Little Calumet River and is host to an oak woodland, so you are able to see birds such as the Great Blue Heron, Double-Crested Cormorant, Red-Headed Woodpecker, among others. We will be meeting at Whistler Woods Forest Preserve, at the end of the parking lot. We will provide binoculars, which will be disinfected before and after use. Come see what we find! Be sure to dress according to the weather, we plan to stay on paved trails and not go off into dirt trails. Please be sure to wear closed-toe shoes, just in case, that you don't mind getting a little dirty. All ages welcomed!
