The timberdoodles came, and COS was there! In early spring we went on a number of evening woodcock walks to try to catch a glimpse of the enigmatic bird's unique sky dance. Read the full report on the Chicago Birder blog: chicagobirder.org/blog/2024/4/15…

Spring in #chicago: Virginia bluebells, Mayapples, apple blossoms, and prickly pear cacti
Yesterday’s Connections puzzle really got me because I was so sure “flush” was a synonym for “surprise.” Birder problems.
Chipping Sparrows are back and a singing male has already claimed the northeastern grove of spruces at Horner Park.
It was so much fun!
Next weekend! Sharpen your photography skills at this bird photography class at Big Marsh. All levels are welcome. Cameras and binoculars are encouraged but not required. RSVP: chicagobirder.org/events/2024/4/…
The Murdock Mine (pictured) just 30 miles south of Champaign is an example of a #ZombieMine in IL. Clean-up, has gone terribly wrong & polluted water flows off the mine. The coal industry is in decline and we need federal policy reform to make sure coal mines are cleaned up.
Big news! The Coal Cleanup Taxpayer Protection Act and the Bond Improvement and Reclamation Assurance Act were introduced this week in the US House. These bills will help #StopZombieMines and ensure #MineCleanup is paid for by the coal operator - not taxpayers.
@salesforce again with the trees video art right in the middle of migration in the glass walled lobby of your building on the Chicago river - please stop, are you TRYING to kill birds? @chicago_birder
The #PipingPlovers are back! Plover "Of,Yb:X,B" ("Yibbie", for short) is officially the first piping plover of the season to arrive at #SleepingBearDunes. The plover crew was thrilled to spot him on Tuesday, April 9. They saw four more the next day, but Yibbie won the race!
This was such a fun walk this past Saturday!! Our bird walk participants got to see 11 species of ducks and were also treated with 100s of flyover cormorants plus a few eagles. Note to self to have more bird walks at Indian Ridge Marsh in April!
Join COS April 6 for a walk through Indian Ridge Marsh. Expect to find early spring migrants and to learn a lot with expert Calumet birders Stephanie Beilke and Jake Vinsel. (Stephanie does great bird impressions!) Register: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…
@chicago_birder Congratulations! These victories for birds are so hard to come by. Wildlife needs to be part of the planning for all human habitats--and not, as is almost always the case, an afterthought.
Sustainability shouldn’t be “optional.” Lives of living creatures shouldn’t be expendable. Get it right, Chicago, stop murdering birds! Chicago glass buildings kill thousands of migratory birds each year. Advocates want stronger protections chicago.suntimes.com/environment/20… @chicago_birder
