SUMMARY:Yellowwood State Forest Spring Migration Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Join experienced bird hike leader Matthias Benko for a morning of birding at Yellowwood State Forest. Matthias launched Bloomington Birders\, a small birding club\, on the campus of Indiana University in 2020. He collaborated with Audubon Great Lakes to register Bloomington Birders as an official Audubon on Campus Chapter. This fall\, students at IU Bloomington “flocked” to join the birding club. \nYellowwood State Forest is a prime nesting location for warblers such as Worm-eating\, Kentucky\, Hooded and more. Other migrants should also be plentiful at this time of year. We’ll meet at T.C. Steele Historic Site at 4220 T.C Steele Road\, Nashville at 8:00am. Restrooms are available at this location. We’ll caravan from there to different locations. \nRegistration for this event is limited to 10 participants. The field trip is free but prior registration is required. Early registration is available to ABAS members until April 29 at which time non-members may register if there are any spots open. To register\, email Chuck Anderson at chucka1999@aol.com or text Chuck at 317-767-5438. \nAs always\, dress appropriately for the weather and don’t forget your binoculars. \nWorm-Eating Warbler photo courtesy of Chuck Anderson.

SUMMARY:Cerulean Warbler Research - Dr. Kamal Islam
DESCRIPTION:Join us this May for a discussion with Dr. Kamal Islam—Professor of Wildlife Biology at Ball State University. Dr. Kamal Islam has been conducting research since 2000 focused on investigating factors that may be contributing to the decline of Cerulean Warbler breeding populations in southern Indiana. He and his students have conducted baseline studies on distribution\, relative abundance\, and characteristics of territories\, including spacing\, song perch selection\, and vocalization behavior. Currently\, they are focused on breeding biology and the effects of past silvicultural practices on Cerulean Warbler abundance. He will be presenting the findings of his research during our program.

SUMMARY:Eagle Creek Park Photography Hike
DESCRIPTION:Shari McCollough is a well known birder and photographer throughout the state of Indiana as well as a gifted artist. She also leads trips to Sax-Zim Bog annually for Indiana Audubon Society and has presented at our monthly meeting. We are honored to have Shari lead our photography hike. Shari’s introduction to birds started with her love of photography\, inspired by the diversity of species that migrate through the state of Indiana. She spends most of her time at her favorite birding spot located just five minutes from her house in Crawfordsville. This spot happens to be The Lye Creek Burn where she has had the opportunity to learn so much about birds\, habitats\, and conservation. Shari’s love of birds inspired her to want to do more\, leading her to a seat on the Indiana Audubon Board of Directors. She has served two terms on the board and is now the standing Vice President and Membership Chair. Shari loves to lead trips and share her love of birds and photography with others. \nPlease meet at the Eagle Creek Park Marina at 8:30am. This hike will have a limit of ten participants and registration is required. To register please email Chuck Anderson at chucka1999@aol.com or text him at (317)767-5438. \nPhoto courtesy of Shari Mcollough.

SUMMARY:Winter Lakefront Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Join experienced birder\, field trip leader\, and IAS board member Scott Enochs as he leads you along the Indiana Lake Michigan lakeshore in search of wintering gulls\, waterfowl\, and any vagrants that may be in the area. We’ll meet at Washington Park Beach in Michigan City (41.7281N 86.9040W) at 8:00 am local time (9:00 am EST).

Most of the time will be spent traveling to as many sites as possible to scan the lake. \nParticipants can expect to return to the Indianapolis area around 6:00 pm EST.  There may be a break for lunch in the Gary/Chesterton area. \nThe field trip is free but is limited to 10 participants and registration is required. Priority registration is available to ABAS members through January 1\, 2023. After that date\, if any open spots remain\, non-members may register. To sign up email Chuck Anderson at chucka1999@aol.com or text Chuck at (317) 767-5438. \nIf we experience inclement weather on January 14\, January 28 will be our backup date. \nPhoto courtesy of Chuck Anderson.

SUMMARY:Certified Wildlife Habitat Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Certified Wildlife Habitat Workshop is a unique educational opportunity for individuals and families who are interested in protecting the natural beauty and local wildlife of Indiana. Program participants will learn about native plants and animals\, explore the links between their communities and larger ecosytems\, and discover how to create wild-life friendly habitats. The workshop will be presented by Indiana Wildlife Federation’s Habitat Programs Manager Aaron Stump. \nOur native species are best suited for the soil and weather conditions in Indiana and are the perfect plants to grow in your yard. They require no fertilizer\, no pesticides\, and less water than non-native species\, all while attracting and supporting Indiana’s wildlife. Aaron’s expertise in native plants and Indiana habitats will be a great resource for anyone interested in transforming their outdoor space into a wildlife oasis.

This will be the 112th anniversary of the Indianapolis CBC\, which was first held in December 1910. \nNationwide\, more than 2\,000 CBCs are conducted during the holiday season. National Audubon Society and other organizations use the data collected in this longest-running wildlife census to assess the health of bird populations and to help guide conservation actions. General information about the National Audubon Society and the Annual Christmas Bird Count can be found at www.audubon.org/conservation/join-christmas-bird-count. \nThe Indianapolis CBC\, sponsored by ABAS\, takes place within a 15-mile-diameter circle covering the northeast side of Indianapolis\, with the center point being in Fort Harrison State Park. \nIf you are a beginning birder\, you will be able to join a group that includes at least one experienced birdwatcher. In addition\, if your home is within the boundaries of the count circle\, you can stay home and report the birds that visit your bird feeders. \nThe most exciting news is that CBC is a free program. To participate\, please register prior to December 11 so that birding teams and count plans can be made in advance of the count. Register to participate by emailing John Schaust at schaust@sbcglobal.net. \nOur birding teams will gather for lunch at a nearby restaurant to tally our morning count total.

DESCRIPTION:Join ABAS at The Virginia B. Fairbanks Art & Nature Park at Newfields for bird hikes on this beautiful property along the White River and Central Canal. The hikes will be led by an experienced birder from ABAS. \nMeet at the free parking at the loop just ¼ mile west of the 38th Street entrance to Newfields. The address given for this event is approximate. You’ll need to be heading west on 38th Street to enter the loop parking area. Take the White River Pkwy East exit. \nThe hike is free and open to the public. Registration is requested by emailing us at info@amosbutleraudubon.org. \n  \nAbout Virginia B. Fairbanks Art & Nature Park: 100 Acres\nOn one hundred acres along the west side of Newfields\, just east of White River\, you’ll find Fairbanks Park. Explore woodlands\, wetlands\, meadows\, and the shoreline of a 35-acre lake. It’s one of the largest museum art parks in the country\, and unlike most\, continues to commission temporary\, site-responsive artworks. \nAs a former farm and later gravel quarry\, Fairbanks Park has a history of disturbance that has resulted in a mix of early successional woodlands\, some mature woodlands\, wetlands\, and a lake. This habitat diversity has created a property with the ability to host niche species of several different habitat types. Newfields strives to maintain that habitat diversity by invasive species removal and planting of Indiana native plant species in all areas of the Park. \nRecent additions include a nesting platform built to attract birds of prey\, a wild grass labyrinth\, and a variety of bird feeding and viewing stations.

SUMMARY:Caves and Caving in Indiana
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Dean Wiseman is a professor of biology at the University of Indianapolis with multidisciplinary expertise in physiology\, cell biology\, pathophysiology and pharmacology. He is also an avid caver and will be sharing his knowledge of caving with us this December. Dean has vast caving experience beyond Indiana such as 5 expeditions to Lechuguilla\, multiple visits to Mammoth Cave\, and his ongoing participation in ground-breaking surveys of Vietnam’s Tiger Cave System. However\, he is also a very avid caver within the state as a former director and active member of the Central Indiana Grotto—our local chapter of the National Speleological Society. This talk will be a great opportunity for those curious about caving in Indiana and ways to get involved in the local speleological scene.
