Chautauqua and Emiquon National Wildlife Refuges

Pre-registration with the leader is required, limit of 10 attendees.
Chautauqua and Emiquon National Wildlife Refuges are located in central Illinois, just south of Peoria. Target species include shorebirds, waterfowl, and other fall migrants that can be seen at these incredible sites. We will meet in a predetermined spot and drive down south together, spending the morning at Chautauqua, having lunch, and then exploring Emiquon after lunch. Please bring comfortable shoes, hat, an umbrella for shade if it’s hot, a scope (if you have one), a packed lunch, bug spray, and of
course binoculars. We are expecting to return home in the early evening.
