The annual Forest Preserve District of Will County Eagle Watch
program will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., January 8, at Four Rivers Environmental Education Center. Bald eagles are spotted regularly at Four
Rivers and the surrounding McKinley Woods area each winter as the birds migrate
to open water.
Some eagles nest in Illinois year-round, but most migrate south
during winter. The Eagle Watch includes refreshing, fact-filled, winter hikes
to search for these majestic birds. Short Talon Talks filled with eagle tidbits
and live birds of prey programs presented by Hoo’s Woods Raptor Center will be
offered inside Four Rivers. There will be a fire outside and Lil’ Deb’s Mobile Eats will be onsite with hot beverages, chili and other delicious food for
sale.
Free admission. Location: 25055 W. Walnut Lane, Channahon. For more information, visit the event calendar at ReconnectWithNature.org.
