Fermilab, Warrenville
Saturday, January 4 @ 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM
Pre-registration is required, limit 10 participants.
Please note that Fermilab is a government research facility and has strict access requirements: All participants aged 18 and over must have a REAL-ID compliant state ID or passport to enter the site. When on site, participants must remain in public areas at all times and leave the same way they came in. When arriving at Fermilab, present your ID and let the security guard know you are here for bird watching. Full details on public access to Fermilab can be found HERE.
We will meet at the ‘Red Barn Area’ located at the end of Sauk Cir Google Map Link (If needed, Fermilab security can provide a site map and directions to this area when you arrive) for a short trip through the Sparrow Hedge before heading to a different part of the lab to look for winter resident Short-eared Owls and other raptors which are typically active in this area around sunset. The trip leader will provide registered participants with more detailed information closer to the date of the trip.
Leader: William Pixler, pillwixler@gmail.com
