Hey,
Does anybody know spots in Chicago for photographing ducks at this time of year? I really need somewhere to go this weekend! Thank you.

Not sure about within Chicago but if you are willing to drive a bit you can sometimes find ducks on the waters at Fermi Lab in Batavia. Also, last weekend I drove to Sterling, IL and found about 100 - 150 ducks on the river through town. You'll most likely see a few eagles there too.

The Grau Mill in Hindsdale, on Salt Creek usually has a lot of ducks and geese as long as the falls are still open and flowing. Like Don said if you go farther west to the fox river, any of the towns like Batavia, St. Charles, Montgomery have good year round populations. Good Luck, Bruce
