Description

Clean out the ear wax and review your bird calls; we are going to be birding by sound! Up to 70% of bird surveying during migration is done by recognizing a bird call. This program is geared toward the blind and visually impaired as we will be birding by sound only. The Forest Preserve is partnering with Birdability (www.birdability.org) during Birdability Week to ensure the birding community and the outdoors are welcoming, inclusive, safe and accessible for everybody because birding is for everybody. Participants are responsible for their own transportation. Be prepared to hike no more than 1 mile on paved terrain and crushed limestone. Plum Creek Nature Center is an accessible facility. Outdoor activities may take place on natural surfaces across uneven terrain.

If you have any questions, please call us at 708-946-2216.

Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service to participate in this program should submit a request online no later than 48 hours before the program.
