Field Trips

Join ABAS Education Chair Jessica Helmbold for a day of celebrating the best of fall.  Southern Indiana fall colors, fall waterfowl migration, and lunch after the outing. Duck migration should be well underway and many species are expected to be present in the refuge.

Meet at the Muscatatuck Visitors Center. Lunch will be at a local eatery with the location to be determined.

There will be no fee for the field trip and it's open to the public.  Registration is not required but greatly appreciated.

Masks will be required for the majority of the hike. There may be times when we can spread out and get a quick break from the masks.

Registration is full. Join ABAS Field Trip Chair Chuck Anderson for a field trip to Celery Bog Nature Area. This will be a great opportunity to view waterfowl and year-round resident birds. Target birds are waterfowl, including Northern Pintail, Redhead, and Canvasback ducks, with a possibility of spotting a Long-tailed Duck. Snow Goose and Greater White-fronted Goose also frequent the bog.

There is no fee for the field trip. However, it is limited to 12 participants, and registration is required.

Masks will likely be required for most of the trip. There may be times when we can spread out and take a break from the masks.
