About this Event

Join the Chicago BIPOC Birders Network for a stroll through the North Park Village Nature Center (NPVNC) preserve. This is a free event.

We will walk through the 46-acre nature preserve on woodchipped trails for about 2 hours. The mood of our bird walks is casual, fun, and lighthearted. We make new friends, reconnect with old ones, and keep an eye out for the diverse species of birds that call the NPVNC home.

At the end of our bird walk, we will come together for a taquiza - a sort of taco buffet and a tradition for many Mexican households - catered by a local business in Albany Park. There will be meat and vegetarian options.

We fully welcome all Black, Indigenous, and People of Color to join! Allies can help spread the word of this event to BIPOC folks.

Getting there & Parking: Go green by taking the CTA to the Nature Center: Pulaski (#53 bus) to Ardmore or Peterson (# 84 bus) to Pulaski. If arriving by car, please park at the designated Nature Center Visitor parking spaces. Note: No parking at designated NPV Apartments lots. If the lot becomes full, take the road east to Peterson Park Field House and Park in front of the Field House.

What to Bring: Sun protection, layers in case you get warm or hot, insect repellant if you have it, shoes you won't mind getting muddy (gym shoes or hiking shoes), water, an optional face mask in case you decide to go into the nature center.

Binoculars: We will have some binoculars available for you to use if you don't have a pair. Please let us know in your RSVP form if you need any.

Please note: This event has a capacity limit due to catering. Please only RSVP if you are confident you will attend. Of course, things come up! Email us at [email protected] if your plans change and you can no longer make it. This will open up a spot for others to attend!
