SUMMARY:Grand Rapids Audubon Club Event
DESCRIPTION:Chapter Event – Fall Warblers at Reeds Lake – Grand Rapids Audubon Club Event\nSeptember 26\, 2015 8:00 AM\nTrip Leader: Steve Minard\nReeds Lake is still one of the better spots in the area for warblers. Catching the right time does seem to be trickier and the peak fall dates seem to have shifted later. Hopefully this date works\, if it does\, we can expect about 10 species of fall warblers. In recent years\, good numbers of Blackpoll\, Yellow-rumped\, Nashville\, Black-throated Green\, and Tennessee Warblers have been sighted here. The combination of residences\, lake\, marsh\, and remnant woodlands does seem to produce a variety of birds at this location. \nEssentials: Meet on the northwest end of Darby where it meets Reeds Lake Blvd near the bluff. Reach Darby off Bonnell. Bonnell is off Lake Dr midway between Breton and Hall St in East Grand Rapids at 8:00 AM. We plan to walk a 1-mile route and retrace our steps to Darby. \nSafety Hazards: Bugs are possible and poison ivy grows along side the road. Take precautions. The road is open to traffic\, so watch for cars\, bikes\, lawnmowers and ORVs. Please exercise caution on the roads driving to and from the meeting place. \nQuestions? Call Steve Minard at (616) 942-7165

SUMMARY:Cranes\, Color\, and Cabernet Festival
DESCRIPTION:Cranes\, Color\, Cabernet\, and Cider Too\nThe Phyllis Haehnle Memorial Sanctuary (which is Michigan Audubon’s largest sanctuary) came into being 60 years ago. The anniversary will be commemorated at this year’s Cranes\, Colors\, and Cabernet festival at the sanctuary on Saturday October 17. \nActivities celebrating the Greater Sandhill Crane are hosted by both Jackson Audubon Society (JAS) and Sandhill Crane Vineyards as part of the event in northeast Jackson County. During the festival\, members of JAS will lead driving tours to see the cranes as they forage for food\, and walking tours of the sanctuary trails. The winery will have restaurant specials and provide activities at its location at 4724 Walz Road near Jackson. \nThe event begins at noon when JAS naturalists lead one-hour walking tours of the 1000-plus-acre Haehnle Sanctuary. The last tour will depart at 2:00 p.m. The tour will take participants to the north side of Mud Lake Marsh\, a location rarely visited by humans and a staging area for migrating cranes. \nA lecture on the natural history of the Sandhill Crane will be presented at 4:00 p.m. by a Haehnle naturalist. At 4:30 p.m. participants can take part in the “crane caravan tour.” JAS members will lead this carpool tour to the nearby farm fields\, providing the opportunity to see the cranes at a closer range than at the sanctuary. The carpool will return to Haehnle at approximately 5:30 p.m.\, allowing participants to watch the “fly-in\,” which is when cranes fly directly overhead as they return to the marsh for the evening. Advance notice of your participation in the caravan tour is requested and can be made by contacting the Michigan Audubon office at 517-580-7364. \nViewing of the cranes returning to their roost will occur at the Sanctuary’s observation hill overlooking Mud Lake Marsh until dusk. Haehnle Sanctuary is located directly across the road from 9011 Seymour Road\, northeast of Jackson. \nSchedule: \n12 p.m. – Nature tour with Haehnle naturalist\n\n2 p.m. – Nature tour with Haehnle naturalist \n\n4 p.m. – Celebration of sixty years / Natural History of Sandhill Cranes \n\n4:30 p.m. – Car tour to see Sandhill Cranes feeding in fields \n\n5:30 to\nDark        – Watch cranes coming back to roost in Haehnle Sanctuary at Wing Observation Hill\, Haehnle Sanctuary

SUMMARY:Audubon Society of Kalamazoo Meeting - "A Visual Exploration of North America"
DESCRIPTION:Chapter Event – Audubon Society of Kalamazoo\nOct 26 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm \n MONTHLY MEETING: “A VISUAL EXPLORATION OF NORTH AMERICA” \nCharles St. Charles will be at the October 26 Audubon Society of Kalamazoo (ASK) meeting to explain his upcoming project. Come to the People’s Church\, 1758 North 10th Street\, Kalamazoo. The program will start at 7:30 PM and is preceded by a social time with light refreshments at 7:00 PM (please bring your own coffee/tea mug). Guests and the general public are welcome. Handicap parking and access is at either the front or rear entrances to the building.\n Read more in ASK’s own words:\n \n \n\nWow\, this is too big for me to explain. Here is what Charles St. Charles says\, “The project I am going to describe in my presentation may be the largest project ever attempted by a single photographer. I am visiting all 15 of the major eco-regions in the continent and featuring each one in a separate edition of a digital publication. At the same time I am leaving time-lapse cameras behind\, largely hosted by national and state parks. So when I am done I’ll have 90 cameras in the field that are shooting time-lapse\, and I’ll be able to put up a map of the entire continent with near real-time images of each region. You’ll be able to tap on any region in the continent and see what is going on in the natural world in that region.”\nThis is a personal project for Charles. He is a professional photographer. He is launching a digital publication that will feature a different season in each eco-region of the North American continent with each issue. During his shoots\, Charles finds hosts for his time-lapse cameras. Of course the photographs are finding other uses: park visitor centers\, in studies of controlled burns\, and desert pollinators.\nSomeday\, Charles hopes\, we will be able to walk through a floor map of the North American continent watching on monitors as the seasons display their natural wonders in that region.\nYou get a preview!

SUMMARY:Audubon Society of Kalamazoo Program
DESCRIPTION:Chapter Event – Audubon Society of Kalamazoo – Michigan Wetlands Loss Mitigation\nMonday\, November 23\, 7:30 PM\nMichigan’s total wetland loss since 1978 is estimated at 41\,000 acres\, with the rate of decline slowing since then\,” wrote Garret Ellison in the Kalamazoo Gazette\, September 20\, 2015. Eleven counties in eastern Michigan have lost 80% to 85% of their wetlands. Bird and wildlife habitat\, water quality\, and water level fluctuations are significantly impacted. What can be done about it?\nPeter Wyckoff is a Biosystems and Agricultural Engineer who does wetland delineations\, GPS surveys\, and HydroCAD modeling to assist State or Federal road builders and land developers meet the requirements for reducing the impact\, or to create compensation for the loss of wetlands. He is mitigating the loss of natural habitat to achieve a no net loss of wetlands habitat. What gets investigated? — Natural stream channel design\, hydraulic engineering\, and design of aquaponics systems. Pete will help us understand what that means. Because of the Federal Clean Water Act\, development and construction projects that impact a wetland are required to mitigate the damage by creating a wetland of equal or greater functioning capacity. This is environmental habitat protection at the basics.\nPete’s work stretches through more states than Michigan\, but he is a Michigan State graduate and works out of the Ducks Unlimited office in Ann Arbor\, so he will have lots of Michigan stories to tell us.\nYou may remember Pete was scheduled to present this program last February. He became ill\, and we had to call on Josh Haas to bring in a program at the last minute. Well\, we get another chance to hear about this vital environmental issue.\nJoin us Monday\, November 23\, at People’s Church\, 1758 North 10th Street\, Kalamazoo. The program starts at 7:30 PM and is preceded by a social time with light refreshments at 7 PM. Guests and the general public are encouraged to attend. Handicap parking and access is at either the front or rear of the building. Please remember to bring your own coffee cup.\nContact: Larry Boutelle\, 269-372-0678 \n

SUMMARY:Hawk Migration and ID - Barry County Bird Club
DESCRIPTION:Hawk Talk Presented by Josh Haas\n \nDecember 16\, 7:00 PM at Barry County Enrichment Center\nJosh Haas will be giving a talk on hawk migration and how to identify hawks in the air. \nJosh Hass describes the talk: “I’ve done many talks related to Hawks but this one is pretty special.  While most agree Hawks bring a sense of wonder\, they also bring a sense of struggle when it comes to ID’ing them properly.  Part of my talk will feature side by side video footage comparing Hawks in flight at the same time.  It’s very eye opening to see them in this way.  I hope you will all join me for an enjoyable evening out.” \nQuestions?
