Guided bird walks are held on Sunday mornings during the spring and fall migration seasons: March through May and September through October. We meet at the Anita Purves Nature Center parking lot (1505 N. Broadway, Urbana) at 7:30 AM, then decide whether to walk into Crystal Lake Park or Busey Woods. These parks play host to 36 species of warblers every spring as well as large numbers of vireos, thrushes, orioles, and tanagers. CCAS guides will help you notice birds that they see and hear. Walks officially last about 1.5 hours, although some folks stay later if the birding is good. 

There are several landmarks in Crystal Lake Park that you will hear CCAS members mention when birding; check out this map of Crystal Lake Park to familiarize yourself with those landmarks.
