Backyard Winter Birds

In winter, some of Illinois’ native birds migrate south, others stay and some birds arrive. Learn about the birds that spend the winter months in our area and how to attract them to your yard. Take a guided hike in the forest to search for some of these winter jewels and return to the nature center for a warm drink and some indoor bird viewing.

Fee: Free!
Age: Ages 10 or older.

Registration required by Saturday, Jan. 10, by calling 815-722-4121 or online: https://anc.apm.activecommunities.com/fpdwc/activity/search/detail/9870?onlineSiteId=0&from_original_cui=true
