The Noel J. Cutright Bird Club, in cooperation with the Lake Michigan Bird Observatory and OWBC, will host this annual event at Forest Beach Migratory Preserve, five miles north of Port Washington. The count will begin at 6:30 a.m. on the Bill Cowart Memorial Hawk Watch Platform on the northeast corner of the preserve. The Sit’s 17-foot circle is on the perfectly-sized hawk watch platform at Forest Beach Migratory Preserve. Since 2007, birders have recorded a total of 266 species at Forest Beach. Join us for a half-hour, or a half-day! And there will be donuts for the early birders.

Meet at Forest Beach Migratory Preserve (address below).

Recommended for ages 8+ (youth must be accompanied by an adult) and is free to attend.
