SUMMARY:Warner Sanctuary Workday
DESCRIPTION:Michigan Audubon’s Ronald H. Warner Sanctuary is a hidden gem in Barry County. Adjacent to the Barry State Game Area Global Important Bird Area\, Warner is home to breeding forest birds and a number of threatened and endangered plants — and it needs your help to stay this way. \nEach workday\, Michigan Audubon staff and volunteers gather to remove invasive plants that threaten habitat health. These workdays are a great opportunity to get to know the sanctuary and help give back to the birds. Think of these workdays as “wild gardening” — these are mildly strenuous workdays that involve hiking around the sanctuary and cutting down invasive woody shrubs with hand pruners or hand saws\, often in challenging locations. A good workout is guaranteed! We do take many snack and water breaks throughout the workday. \nWild raspberries\, poison ivy\, and biting insects are common so please dress appropriately in close-toed boots\, long sleeves\, pants\, and a hat. Please bring leather or gardening gloves if you have them\, but we do have extras on site to borrow. Water and snacks will be available but feel free to bring extras if you like. \nThis event is weather dependent. Rain or thunderstorms will cancel the event. If you RSVP you will receive up-to-date information on changes to this event. Please note that our sanctuaries do not have bathrooms or running water at this time.* \nPlease RSVP to Conservation Program Coordinator Linnea Rowse at lrowse@michiganaudubon.org if you plan to attend the workday. We hope to see you at the sanctuary! \n— \nRonald H. Warner Sanctuary is located at: 42.620669\, -85.396601 \nWe will meet at the parking area on the east side of Erway Road in Hastings.

SUMMARY:Volunteer Training/Review: Bird-Window Collision Monitoring
DESCRIPTION:Window collisions kill up to 1 billion birds a year making it the second-largest threat to bird populations in the United States. The good news is that bird-window collisions are preventable when a few simple steps are taken and this can begin by gathering data. With fall migration upon us\, Michigan Audubon is looking for volunteers to monitor bird fatalities at buildings in the downtown Lansing area and on Michigan State University’s campus. \nCollecting data about bird-window collisions can help to assess high-risk buildings and inspire property owners to make changes to ensure greater safety for birds including moving plants away from windows and reducing artificial night lighting. \nMonitoring is ideally done in the early morning before specimens are removed by cleaning crews or eaten by predators\, but collection times are flexible. Specimens should be photographed and collected. Michigan Audubon will provide volunteers with the necessary equipment. \nIf interested\, please join us for a volunteer training session on Aug. 20 at 5:30 p.m. We will meet at Kelly’s Downtown (220 S. Washington Square\, Lansing\, MI 48933) for an introduction into window collision monitoring followed by a brief walk along one of the monitored routes. Volunteers are needed to walk collision monitoring routes from Aug. 15 to Oct. 31\, surveying each assigned building 2–3 times per week. \nIf you have any questions\, please contact Michigan Audubon Conservation Project Coordinator Linnea Rowse at lrowse@michiganaudubon.org or 517-580-7364.

SUMMARY:Chimney Swift Tower Build at Woldumar
DESCRIPTION:Michigan Audubon is seeking volunteers to help finish building a Chimney Swift tower at Woldumar Nature Center! \nThis project benefits Chimney Swift a bird species dependent on human structures for nest sites. The Okemos High School Earth Club constructed the tower components\, so we just need to assemble the tower on site. \nAll in all\, this tower will be approximately 15 feet tall and will support one nesting pair of Chimney Swift during their summer nesting season\, or several Chimney Swift (up to 100 if we are lucky!) during their migration. \n\nWe will meet at Woldumar Nature Center (5739 Old Lansing Rd\, Lansing\, MI 48917). If you are interested in volunteering with us\, please email Conservation Program Coordinator Linnea Rowse at lrowse@michiganaudubon.org. \nIn case of rain\, this event will be postponed until Sept. 4.

SUMMARY:Warner Sanctuary Workday
DESCRIPTION:Michigan Audubon’s Ronald H. Warner Sanctuary is a hidden gem in Barry County. Adjacent to the Barry State Game Area Global Important Bird Area\, Warner is home to breeding forest birds and a number of threatened and endangered plants — and it needs your help to stay this way. \nEach workday\, Michigan Audubon staff and volunteers gather to remove invasive plants that threaten habitat health. These workdays are a great opportunity to get to know the sanctuary and help give back to the birds. Think of these workdays as “wild gardening” — these are mildly strenuous workdays that involve hiking around the sanctuary and cutting down invasive woody shrubs with hand pruners or hand saws\, often in challenging locations. A good workout is guaranteed! We do take many snack and water breaks throughout the workday. \nWild raspberries\, poison ivy\, and biting insects are common so please dress appropriately in close-toed boots\, long sleeves\, pants\, and a hat. Please bring leather or gardening gloves if you have them\, but we do have extras on site to borrow.

SUMMARY:Otis Sanctuary Workday
DESCRIPTION:Michigan Audubon’s Otis Farm Bird Sanctuary is an oasis for birds\, but it needs your help to stay that way! Located in Barry County\, this 128-acre bird sanctuary hosts rolling fields\, mature forest\, expansive marshland\, a stream\, kettle hole marshes\, and several springs.  \nEach workday\, Michigan Audubon staff and volunteers gather to remove invasive plants that threaten habitat health. These workdays are a great opportunity to get to know the sanctuary and help give back to the birds. Think of these workdays as “wild gardening” — these are mildly strenuous workdays that involve hiking around the sanctuary and cutting down invasive woody shrubs with hand pruners or hand saws\, often in challenging locations. A good workout is guaranteed! We do take many snack and water breaks throughout the workday. \nWild raspberries\, poison ivy\, and biting insects are common so please dress appropriately in close-toed boots\, long sleeves\, pants\, and a hat. Please bring leather or gardening gloves if you have them\, but we do have extras on site to borrow. Water and snacks will be available but feel free to bring extras if you like. \nThis event is weather dependent. Rain or thunderstorms will cancel the event. If you RSVP you will receive up-to-date information on changes to this event. \nPlease RSVP to Conservation Program Coordinator Linnea Rowse at lrowse@michiganaudubon.org if you plan to attend the workday. We hope to see you at the sanctuary! \n— \nOtis Farm Bird Sanctuary is located at 3560 Havens Rd.\, Hastings\, MI 49058.
