About this event

Description

Ages 16 and older. Participants younger than 18 must be accompanied by a registered adult.

Join us for an early-morning bird hike as we explore the sights and sounds of our local feathered residents, with special attention to our state icon the northern cardinal and other familiar species. After our guided hike, we will continue the experience indoors with a viewing of Marcia Whitney-Schenck's interpretation of 28 state birds through her vivid art exhibit “Winged Ambassadors.” Enjoy the artwork while observing birds visiting our feeders, blending nature and creativity into one experience. Plum Creek Nature Center is an accessible facility. The hike will be no longer than 1.5 miles on natural surface trails that may be uneven.


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.
