SUMMARY:FULL - Waterfowl and Owl Caravan with Thirty\, Birdy & Thriving
DESCRIPTION:Hey TBT peeps\, did you know Indy has its very own *reliable* Short-eared Owl hotspot? ABAS wants to take you out to see these magical birds of prey\, as well as some weird ducks\, geese\, and swans on our next sunset field trip.  \nTo accommodate for the owls and your work schedules\, our program is scheduled for Saturday\, January 24 from 4:00-6:00 pm. Participants will meet at the parking lot for Geist Coffee Company (just in case you’d like to stop for coffee\, but please arrive early if your plan to do so). From there we will carpool to Geist Waterfront Park and/or the lot across the Olio Rd Bridge\, depending on waterfowl activity. This end of the reservoir is usually good for large\, mixed flocks. \nAt about the halfway point\, we will carpool to Mt Comfort Airport in McCordsville to wait out the owls and whatever else shows up during this time. Likely winter species include Horned Lark\, Northern Harrier\, sparrows\, and waterfowl gathering to roost. There is a possibility for Lapland Longspur\, Snow Bunting\, and Rough Legged Hawk. \nAt both stops we will do our best to allow for car-birding as well as birding outside. However\, as there are limited spots that will provide a view from inside the cars\, please let me know if you have a condition that cannot tolerate cold\, wind\, or long periods of standing\, so that we can allow those in most need a car spot to enjoy the experience.  \nPlease bring scopes and binoculars as distances will vary at each spot\, and dress for the weather (including hand/toe warmers). We should arrive back at Geist Coffee at 6pm\, which will be after dark. \nThis field trip is free but slots are filled. To get on waitlist\, email Olivia Bautch at falcon_515@outlook.com. As a reminder\, the Thirty\, Birdy & Thriving program is designed to bring 20–40-year-olds together to find their peeps in-person and share their love of birds.

SUMMARY:Jessica Helmbold: Patuxent Research Refuge
DESCRIPTION:Patuxent Research Refuge in central Maryland is the only U.S. National Wildlife Refuge established specifically to support wildlife research. Established in 1936\, the refuge covers over 12\,800 acres of forest\, meadow\, and wetland habitats between Washington\, D.C. and Baltimore. The refuge is a significant landmark in conservation history\, known for pioneering research on topics such as the effects of DDT on bird eggshells and assisted Whooping Crane migration.
