About this event

Description

Ages 8 or older. Participants younger than 18 must be accompanied by a registered adult.

Demanding a romantic light, the male woodcock waits until dusk before performing his theatrical display. The woodcock “sky dance” is quite a sight to see! We will start the evening learning about the American woodcock, then we’ll take a hike to see if we can catch a glimpse of the courtship flight. This program has both hiking and stationary portions based on the activity of the woodcock. This is an inclusive program, welcoming individuals of all abilities. The hike will take place in low light at dusk. The hike will be 1 mile to 2 miles on paved trails and natural surfaces across uneven terrain.


If you have any questions, please call us at 815-722-9470.

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.
