May 30, 2015   Kankakee Sands and Willow Slough

Stockbridge Audubon's last field trip of the season brought 11 birders to TNC Kankakee Sands and Willow Slough FWA in Newton County. We experience rain on-and-off all day, but it only started raining heavily as we started home. The heavy rain did not deter us, however, from stopping at Fair Oaks Dairy for ice cream.

Seen on the way: Chimney Swift (8) in Akron, Eurasian Collared-Dove (1) in Parr
