The latest news and announcements from Champaign County Audubon Society and our partners!
On April 13th, eight volunteers with Champaign County Audubon Society partnered with the Champaign County Forest Preserve District to remove invasive shrubs from an area near where migratory Northern Saw-Whet Owls spend the winter.
Congratulations to our 2024 Kendeigh Grant awardees! This year’s funded projects will study how predators affect grassland birds, the health and winter ecology of Eastern Whip-poor-wills, and whether migratory American Robins are a source of West Nile Virus to non-migratory robins.
Spring is a great time to find warblers, as many migrate through Champaign County. This month’s featured bird is one of the warblers that sticks around, and is the most common to nest in our area.
