Are you interested in watching birds? Chicago Audubon and the Forest Preserves of Cook County are co-hosting a Zoom program especially for you!

On October 13, Chicago Audubon and the Forest Preserves of Cook County will be co-hosting a Zoom program especially for you! In this short, free program we will be introducing you to the useful eBird app! What is the eBird app, you ask? Well, this program will be perfect for you. Through eBird you can keep track of your sightings, contribute them to a national database, and find out what birds are being seen in your area and by who. Already know eBird, but have a few questions? Well, this program will be perfect for you too! An introduction to the birds of Trailside Museum and Thatcher Woods will be included.

The program will begin with ten minutes of bird talk in small groups.

Call 708-366-6530 or email trailside.museum@cookcountyil.gov with questions.
