The trails in this Lake County Forest Preserve move from pine grove to prairie to oak woodland, providing diverse habitats for migrants as well as resident birds. Species seen here at this time last year range from a few late warblers and thrushes to Purple Finch, Pine Siskin, assorted sparrows on the way to their wintering grounds, and even Tufted Titmouse not typically seen in our area.
Directions: The preserve is located at 10200 Blanchard, Waukegan. The entrance is on Blanchard Road, just west of Sheridan Road, north of Bowen Prak and south of Yorkhouse Road.
Leaders: Wanda Supanich 224-433-1675 and Susan Lamberts
