SUMMARY:Feathers & Fermentation: Get Sprung! Birds and Blooms of Spring
DESCRIPTION:Our good friend Wes Homoya\, birder extraordinaire\, will lead a special birding birding event at the Fred and Dorothy Meyer Nature Preserve. \nJoin Wes – a native Hoosier\, avid birder\, experienced guide\, and passionate conservationist – as we explore nature and enjoy quality adult beverages. \nWe meet and begin our adventure at 2pm at everyone’s favorite local family cidery – Ash & Elm Cider Co. – for introductions\, a guided tasting\, some time to have a glass of your preferred style\, and an opportunity to purchase cider for the road trip (bring your growlers\, if you like). \nOnce we’re loaded up with drinks\, we’ll load the buses and venture our way southwest to Morgan County to a special Central Indiana Land Trust property known as the Fred & Dorothy Meyer Nature Preserve. Located just south of Mooresville\, this site is unique due to it being one of the northernmost unglaciated landscapes within the state\, providing a taste of the southern Indiana hill country without having to drive too far from Indy. We’ll enjoy the majesty of tall trees\, the beauty of spring wildflowers\, and the thrill of migrating birds. Note that the terrain includes some steep slopes during the ~1.5 mile hike. \nAfterwards\, we’ll head back north to Plainfield’s Nigh Brewing for drinks and further conversation before journeying back east to Ash & Elm\, arriving ~630pm to hang out\, eat\, drink more cider\, and chat about birds until you’re ready to head home. \nPlease dress appropriately for the weather and bring binoculars if you have them (we will have a limited amount available for those who need them). Whether you’ve never been birding before or consider yourself an expert\, you are most welcome! \nBottled water and cups will be provided on the bus. This event is open to participants aged 21 and older\, with a cost of $45 per person\, and all profits will be divided to support the Indiana Audubon and Central Indiana Land Trust.
