Birding adventures w/ the Audubon Society [Part 2]!
Birding adventures w/ the Audubon Society [Part 2]!
I’ve teamed up with @audubongreatlakes7343 to check out some of the restoration work they’re doing in the Calumet region on the southeast side of Chicago. It’s such an interesting area, as major industry has reshaped the wetlands where so many elusive marshland birds and other animals call home.
Indian Ridge Marsh and Powderhorn Lake are two such areas. Together with the Forest Preserves of Cook County, and the Chicago Parks District, Audubon Great Lakes is working on the ground to put conservation efforts into action - like (strategic) fires!
This is No. 2 in a 3-part series w/ Audubon GL - stay tuned for our final chapter next week where I interview their Conservation Director about the progress they’re making and learn more about secretive marsh birds 🔎🐦⬛
