SUMMARY:Tuesday Morning Birding Walks with an Expert - May 23
DESCRIPTION:Join an expert birder to go birdwatching in Oliver’s Woods Nature Preserve! \n\n\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 to search 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 \nFree of Charge – RSVP required \nWhat to Expect and Bring: \n\nScope or binoculars.

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

SUMMARY:Tuesday Morning Birding Walks with an Expert - May 2
DESCRIPTION:Join an expert birder to go birdwatching in Oliver’s Woods Nature Preserve! \n\n\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 to search 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 \nFree of Charge – RSVP required \nWhat to Expect and Bring: \n\nScope or binoculars. We will have a small quantity to share with the group.\nDress for the weather and be sure to wear pants thick enough to stand up to thorns\, brush\, poison ivy\, ticks\, and mosquitos (unfortunately leggings aren’t very protective).\nWear closed-toed shoes that can stand up to mud.\n\nRSVP \nPlease click here to preregister via Eventbrite so we know to expect you. \nDirections: \nOliver’s Woods is located at 8825 River Road Indianapolis\, Indiana. Please park in the parking lot adjacent to I-465 and follow the trail to the discussion circle. Please plan to arrive on time. \nMore Information: \nLearn more about Rob Ripma and Sabrewing Nature Tours. \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
