Bird Walks in the Nina Mason Pulliam EcoLab

Nina Mason Pulliam EcoLab 3200 Cold Spring Road, Indianapolis, IN, United States

The Nina Mason Pulliam EcoLab is a wonderful place to bird watch, with over 165 different species sightings being recorded since 2002. No experience is necessary, and the hike will be led by one of the bird experts at Marian. The only things that are necessary are binoculars and a little bit of patience! We will meet at the St. Francis colonnade just west of Allison Mansion on the Marian campus at 8:00 am every Wednesday during March and April (excluding March 13), and will head into the EcoLab shortly after. Bring water to drink and wear comfortable shoes. No reservation is required.

Woodcock Walk – Carmel West Park

West Park 2700 W 116th St, Carmel, IN, United States

Join Scott Enochs in a walk through West Park in search of American Woodcock. Woodcocks have a very acrobatic mating display that they perform at dusk, and West Park offers an up-close view of this display. We will meet at the northwest corner of the West Park parking lot.

Woodcock Walk – Daubenspeck Community Nature Park

Daubenspeck Nature Park 8900 Ditch Rd, Indianapolis, IN, United States

Join ABAS Board member Brian Cunningham for an evening walk at Daubenspeck Community Nature Park (DCNP), a great spot to view displaying American Woodcocks.

While waiting for woodcocks, we will check the prairie and nearby woods for birds that may be going to roost in the park for the evening.
