Bird Sit at Sagawau Environmental Learning Center,Lemont
Wednesday, July 12, 2023 @ 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM
Pre-registration with the leader required, limit 10 participants.
NOTE THE LATE START TIME! This trip will be a little different. Sagawau Environmental Learning Center is known for its hummingbirds with a viewing area to sit and watch them at the feeders. There are also other feeders set up in the area and a small pollinator garden. We will sit near the feeders and observe the birds as they come and go. As always this is a field trip for anyone who finds the long walks of our regular field trips too difficult or who would just like a less vigorous birding experience, but still share the camaraderie of fellow birders. Bring your folding lawn chairs, binoculars, and field guides. We will meet at the Sagawau Parking lot. There is a longer walk than usual into the park, however, arrangements have been made to allow us to drive from the parking lot to the seating area using the park’s service road. Sagawau Environmental Learning Center’s address is 12545 West 111th St., Lemont. (West 111th street is also known as Calumet Sag Road and 83.) The park is located less than ¼ mile east of the intersection of Archer Ave and Calumet Sag Road (83), on Calumet Sag Road (West 111th Street). Sagawau Environmental Learning Center Website Feel free to contact me with any questions about the location. Dress for the weather, bring bug spray, drinking water and a folding chair.
