Field Trips
Des Plaines River Migration Ryerson
Ryerson Conservation Area - Riverwoods @ Ryerson Conservation Area | Deerfield | Illinois | United States

This hotspot along the Des Plaines River corridor can yield some of the most sought-after migrants, like the Hooded Warbler that nested there for several years and the Cerulean Warbler that hung out at eye level for 20 minutes on a Lake/Cook outing a few years ago. We’ll look for the resident Pileated Woodpeckers as well.

Directions: From Deerfield Rd., turn north on Riverwoods Rd., drive to Ryerson entrance. Enter preserve and follow the signs to Brushwood Visitors Center. Meet in the Brushwood parking lot. NOTE: The gates open at 6:30 am.
