Beach Park Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

A pair of trees at Illinois Beach State Park at Zion, Illinois. provide isolated shade for beach-goers.
A banded piping plover on the beach at a location that once held many breeding pairs of piping plover's. I later discovered this plover was 7 weeks old and the first one born in 2017 to the Great Lakes Piping Plover population. It was born on June 4th in Manistee Michigan. What an amazing little bird.
A close up of the piping plover which came to within 5 feet of me. These endangered little birds are doing better but they still have a long way to go before they are out of trouble.
A full frame shot of a pair of nesting piping plovers that is ultra rare. These birds started nesting again 4 years ago in Illinois after a long hiatus. They picked the same place they historically nested at the turn of the century. This pair picked a location that has never been used before so I had the rare chance to photograph them while nesting. I am not sure where they were banded but I will find out.

The room was awesome. Much larger than expected. The staff at the front desk and in the restaurant were great. The only complaint I have is the carpet in the hallway on the 2nd floor was bunching up in several areas creating a potential tripping hazard.

The host was very welcoming, and the house was absolutely beautiful. There were just a few minor things that could be tweaked, such as switching the door to the party house, keeping the main bedroom door closed, and fixing the button on the stove. Other than that, the home was perfect for hosting ...
