Mark your calendars! Illinois Free Fishing Days for 2025 are June 13-16. During these four days, everyone can fish in Illinois lakes and waterways without a fishing license, salmon stamp or inland trout stamp. It's a wonderful opportunity to introduce the young people in your life to the joy of fishing and spending time on the water.

For Illinois residents, a standard yearly fishing license costs just $15 a year. License fees help the Illinois Department of Natural Resources conserve fish populations and fish habitats though critical activities like fish production, fish stocking, and habitat restoration. To learn more about licenses, visit https://dnr.illinois.gov/lpr/fishinglicensesfees.html

We'll see you on the water!

Every year, nearly one billion birds collide with glass or man-made structures in the United States. We need to say that again because it's a figure that is hard to grasp. Every year in the United States, nearly one billion birds collide with the glass on our buildings and structures. It doesn't have to be this way.

Dress up those windows. Patterns can be applied to the outside of windows to help birds see that glass is there. Tempera paint can be easily applied and is easily removed using vinegar and water. There are multiple ways to make glass safe for our feathered friends. More tips here: https://ow.ly/JTgc50Tmtex
