SUMMARY:Wednesday Morning with the Birds at Betley Woods - 5.22
DESCRIPTION:Join an expert birder to go birdwatching at Betley Woods in Johnson County! \nCentral Indiana Land Trust’s nature preserves offer a safe harbor for countless bird species. We’re teaming up with expert birder Rob Ripma\, co-owner of Sabrewing Nature Tours\, for this series. This is a rare chance to enjoy guided birding tours of our region’s most biodiverse places. Join us in searching for migratory birds and year-round avian residents. We will likely train our binoculars on waterbirds\, orioles\, bluebirds\, flycatchers\, raptors\, migratory warblers—and many more. \nWe’ll visit a variety of nature preserves\, exploring woodlands\, meadows\, streams\, and river frontage managed by Central Indiana Land Trust. \nAll are welcome\, including people with no birding experience. The best way to get started is to go with a seasoned guide like Rob. \nAll ages (note the trails are considered moderate) \nRSVP required \nWhat to Expect and Bring: \n\nScope or binoculars. We will have a small quantity to share with the group.\nTrails are considered moderate and might not be suitable for all hikers.\nDress in long pants thick enough to stand up to thorns\, brush\, poison ivy\, ticks\, and mosquitos (unfortunately leggings aren’t very protective).\nWear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty and closed-toed shoes that can stand up to mud.\nBring a water bottle\, preferably refillable.\nNo restrooms available on site.\nIn case of inclement weather\, check email for updates.\n\nMore Information: \nRob Ripma and Sabrewing Nature Tours: sabrewingtours.com/guides/ \n“I’ve been birding in Indiana since I was a teenager and can say without a doubt that there’s no more thrilling time to birdwatch in our state than during spring migration. During the month of May\, the pace of migration picks up\, and there are new and amazing things to see every day. CILTI properties and other local natural areas are stopover sites that are critical to birds’ ability to feed and prepare for their next flight north.” –Rob Ripma\, in “The Greatest Spectacle in Birding\,” written for our spring 2021 newsmagazine \nDirections: \nWe will meet at the hayfield across from 2960 County Rd 750 S\, Trafalgar. (After making the turn onto 750 South\, pull into the hayfield directly across from this address\, next to a brown barn labeled “Split Acre Farms.”) \nMap: \nHere is a map detailing how to get to our gathering place. \nTrail development was made possible thanks to the generosity of the Johnson County Community Foundation and the state’s Next Level Trails program\, in partnership with the Indiana Wildlife Federation.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED - Garlic Mustard Pull at Betley Woods at Glacier's End 4.17
DESCRIPTION:Update: This event has been cancelled. \nHelp us welcome back native plants and wildlife by removing invasive garlic mustard from Betley Woods at Glacier’s End. \nSupport the health and resilience of this beautiful preserve by helping with invasive plant removal. Betley Woods at Glacier’s End is located in one of the most biodiverse forested areas of the state. \nAll Ages \nPlease RSVP so we know to expect you. \nWhat to Expect and Bring: \n\nVolunteers will remove plants by hand.\nThe terrain at this preserve is considered moderate.\nDress in long pants thick enough to stand up to thorns\, brush\, poison ivy\, ticks\, and mosquitos (unfortunately leggings aren’t very protective). Wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty.\nWear closed-toed shoes that can stand up to mud.\nBring gardening or work gloves. If you don’t have gloves\, we will provide some.\nDress for the weather as we will work rain or shine.\nPublic restrooms not available.\nIn case of inclement weather\, check email for updates.\n\nDirections: \nWe will meet at the hayfield across from 2960 County Rd 750 S\, Trafalgar. (After making the turn onto 750 South\, pull into the hayfield directly across from this address\, next to a brown barn labeled “Split Acre Farms.”) \nMap: \nHere is a map detailing how to get to our gathering place. \nBetleyWoodsMap \nMore on Garlic Mustard (Alliaria petiolata) \nIt is an invasive plant species that spreads into high-quality woodlands\, upland and floodplain forests\, not just into disturbed areas. Garlic mustard alters habitat suitability for native plants\, insects\, and thereby birds and mammals. \nWhat else can I do? \nAfter visiting an area that has invasive weeds present\, clean up before you leave the site. Make sure your clothes\, boots\, vehicles\, and pets are seed free. Use plants native to Central Indiana in your yard and garden.
