Welcome!

Greetings fellow birders,
I am pleased to announce the creation of this blog. I hope that it will be useful for community members to connect and share information about the flora and fauna of the Starved Rock area. I created this blog and the new Starved Rock Audubon website for a graduate technology class I am taking.
Please feel free to post sightings of birds in the area or post a picture, if you need help identifying a bird you have seen. If you post a sighting for other members visit in person, please be sure to post an exact location or provide directions to the location. For security reasons, please do not post directions to your home or to private property.
Don't forget to check out Starved Rock Audubon's NEW website: www.starvedrockaudubon.org
Thanks,
Tara (Webmaster)
