Winter provides a great opportunity to view waterfowl when numerous species that breed in Canada and the Arctic travel here to hang out for the winter. Bob will help you prepare for winter waterfowl viewing by reviewing many of the species that visit northern Illinois and providing some tips on how to recognize them. He’ll also share his knowledge on when each of these species is likely to be around and some of the best places to find them.
