Springbrook Forest Preserve, Naperville

Pre-registration with the leader is required, limit 15 participants. You are not registered unless you receive confirmation from the trip leader. Meet at the gravel parking lot on the east side of Plainfield-Naperville Road south of 75th Street. This will be a field trip to look for grassland and shrubland birds such as Eastern Meadowlark, Bobolink, Henslow’s  and Savannah Sparrows, Clay-colored Sparrow, Orchard Oriole, Yellow-breasted Chat, Willow Flycatcher, and Bell’s Vireo.  We will be going off-trail and walking in uneven terrain so wear appropriate footwear and long pants.  Bring and use insect repellent – there are many ticks at this time of year at Springbrook.
