Join us at the Winthrop Harbor Yacht Club and surrounding area to look for migrating waterfowl, interesting gulls and possible winter landbird arrivals like Snow Buntings. We’ll check the slips and open water on the south side of the harbor, the waterfront and grassy areas by the Yacht Club, and adjacent State Line Beach – then head to the nearby donut emporium for coffee and arguably the best donuts in Lake County.
Bring binoculars and spotting scopes if you have them – and dress warmly.
Note: There is no access to the Yacht Club so plan your bathroom stop before arriving.
Directions: From Sheridan Road, turn east on 7th Street. Drive to the end of the road, then turn left and follow the service drive to the Yacht Club sign. Turn right at the stop sign and park in the lot near the Yacht Club.
