Sharing Our Shore: The Return of the Piping Plover

Film Screening & Panel Discussion

The endangered Great Lakes Piping Plovers are back in Waukegan! Join the Lake County Audubon Society initiative, Sharing Our Shore – Waukegan, for a special evening celebrating these fragile but fierce shorebirds.

We’ll show the latest version of the film “Sharing Our Shore and the Return of the Piping Plover to Waukegan Shore”and then open the floor to your questions with a panel of dedicated volunteer monitors.

Over the past season, these volunteers contributed nearly 2,000 hours to protecting the plovers and documenting the critical need to safeguard their habitat. This same shoreline provides essential food and shelter for more than 300 bird species that share the space.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn, ask questions, and connect with the people working to ensure the future of the Piping Plovers in Lake County.
