Description
The Nature Center trails are open early for a morning hike and bird watching during the fall migration season. Binoculars and field guides are available for free use upon request once the Nature Center opens at 9am. Join a group of birders, led by J'orge Garcia of Windy City Bird Lab, or enjoy a self-guided walk. Beginners are welcome. Co-sponsored with Chicago Bird Alliance. No registration necessary, parking and entry are always free!
NOTE: There will be no Early Bird Walk on Saturday, October 17th due to North Park Village Nature Center's Fall Festival. Thank you!
