SW Cook Waterfowl County Trip + Lunch in Historic Lemont

This outing will mostly focus on waterfowl, with the potential for loon sightings. Birders of all levels are welcome.

*Registration is REQUIRED and limited to 12 participants*

Locations: The trip will begin at Little Red Schoolhouse at 8:30AM, where we will visit the feeders and scan for waterfowl. Please note that LRSH, which hosts excellent bathroom facilities, opens at 9:00AM.

We will depart this location by 9:30AM, with carpooling strongly encouraged. Other stops are TBD based on pre-trip scouting but will likely include Saganashkee Slough and the Borrow Pit off Centennial Trail. We will wrap up birding around 11:45AM, when those interested will head to lunch at Digs on Canal in Lemont.

Bring a scope if you have one.

Trip leaders: Vicky Sroczynski & Lindsay Vacek
