Event details

Celebrate World Migratory Bird Day in the fall! Join other birders, beginners and experts alike, for a hike into the woods to see some of Will County’s favorite migratory birds. Birds migrating in the fall may not sing so loudly or be so brightly colored, but that only makes them more exciting to discover along the way.
