<DIV>The Forest Preserve District of DuPage County is documenting the nesting birds at several of its preserves this year including Springbrook Prairie in Naperville. This is essentially a mini-atlas project.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I am helping by organizing a Springbrook Breeding Bird Sprint this Saturday, May 24th and a couple other dates in June. Essentially I would like to get a group of birders together to cover the entire site in spring-count type fashion and to also search and document evidence of breeding.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>If you are interested in helping, we are meeting Saturday morning at the main parking lot for Springbrook on 83rd Street west of Book Road in Naperville at 7:00am. Meet at the picnic shelter. From there, we will organize and fan out across the 1800 acre site. - Information,maps, and instructions will be provided. We will return to the shelter between 10 and 10:30 to hear
results.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Should be fun. Let me know if you will attend so that I can plan accordingly. Information is also available on the DuPage Birding Club website.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Joe Suchecki</DIV> <DIV>Naperville</DIV> <DIV>630-369-5570</DIV><p>
