The Farms: Slow Birding

Join Allerton Natural Areas staff on a leisurely morning of birding at Slow Birding from 9 to 11 a.m. on Friday, Jan. 12 (meet at the Buck Schroth Parking Lot).

Participants will take a short, slow hike to a secluded fireside spot in the woods, emphasizing the joy of observing birds that grace us, including woodpeckers diligently at work, nuthatches securing their caches and chickadees playfully scolding.

Be sure to bring your thermos of coffee or tea to keep you warm as you use an unhurried pace to connect with birds at the Park!

$10/person, free for Allerton Bird Club members. Register here. Join the bird club here. All sales are final.

If you will need disability-related accommodations in order to participate, please email Nate Beccue at nbeccue@illinois.edu.
