Jun 9 @ 6:30 pm
Illinois Beach State Park North Unit and Whip-poor-wills – Winthrop Harbor @ Fisherman's Parking Lot | Winthrop Harbor | Illinois | United States

We’ll bird the IBSP North Unit trail heading south from the “fisherman’s parking lot” at North Point Marina, then wind up near the parking lot shortly after 8 pm to be in place when the Whip-poor-wills begin chanting their endless whip-poor-will breeding call at dusk. Sunset is at 8:24 pm so be prepared to stay until 8:45-9 pm.

Directions: From Sheridan Road/Route 137 turn east on 7th Street. Follow 7th street toward the North Point Marina. At the stop sign, turn right and then, almost immediately, turn right into the fisherman’s parking lot.
