Hawkwatch at Chiwaukee Prairie

Meet at 121st Street and 2nd Avenue, Pleasant Prairie, WI 53158.

Hoy plans to meet at Chiwaukee to watch for migrating raptors. There is roadside parking in this area. Bring your binoculars, a chair, water, snacks, and layered clothing in case it’s breezy.

NOTE: This field trip was postponed from October 9 to October 16 due to unfavorable weather forecasted for October 9. Please check by end of day on October 15 to confirm the field trip will be held. If winds are forecasted to be strong from the south or east winds (unfavorable for raptor migration) the event may be canceled.

As weather is ever changing, check back a day or so prior to October 16 on our Facebook group or website for details to confirm that the field trip is still on or if it is postponed! Or contact fieldtrips@hoyaudubon.org.

Due to the ongoing situation with COVID-19, Hoy will limit our field trips to activities/locations where we can maintain social distancing.

If you attend our field trips, we ask that you observe the latest CDC guidelines regarding masking and social distancing. Please bring your own water, snacks, and optics (binoculars and spotting scopes) to help minimize contact. We will also not be carpooling to events as we have in the past.
