Calling all beginning birders! Join experienced Lake County Audubon Society bird walk leaders for a trip around Independence Grove Forest Preserve in Libertyville. This is a perfect preserve for both new and seasoned birders, with a large lake offering expansive views, and a stretch along the Des Plaines River that attracts many land species to the adjacent vegetation, including woodpeckers, nuthatches, sparrows, and finches.

Trip leaders will be happy to help with identification questions during the trip. Please bring a pair of binoculars if you have them, but we will have some loaners available at the walk.

The trip will begin in the North Bay parking lot, pinned on the registration page linked below.
