Evergreen Park

Evergreen Park is one of three county parks in this area, making for a diverse combination of habitats that draw in many species of birds. It is located just east of Lake Michigan and attracts large numbers of songbirds during migration. The park contains mostly evergreens, but the Pigeon River cuts through the park offering grassy banks with some shrubbery that attracts flycatchers, White-crowned, Clay-colored and Harris sparrows, and wading birds. In the hardwood areas, look for warblers of all types. Evergreen is contiguous with Maywood Park, and Quarry Park is located across the street.
