Bird Watching
To learn more about bird migration, some history of the birds of the Preserve, and where and when to find them, see:

• Birds of the Preserve by Season: Winter and Spring
• Birds of the Preserve by Season: Summer and Fall
• Fall Bird Migration in the Lakeshore Nature Preserve
• Eagles at Frautschi Point
• Woodland Migration Corridors: Critical Habitat for Neotropical Migrant Forest Birds

The Preserve has been used by bird watchers for many years.  For Laura Erickson’s memories of the watching birds in the Preserve, see:    Reminiscences of Picnic Point and the Preserve

Finally, take advantage of the Friends bird watching Field trips. Mark your calendar. Also see summaries of recent bird watching field trips with photos.
