This presentation is in person. Please register.
Will County is a great place to look for birds. Besides the birds that nest here each year, or the ones that
spend all year in our area, there are many that pass through as they head north and south. Our area is
along a major flyaway, giving us a great opportunity to view large numbers of birds. Fall is a great time
to start paying attention as many birds will be moving through at this time. Find out what you might be
able to see if you head outside and search for the Birds of Will County
Presented by Alyssa Parker from the Forest Preserve District of Will County.
