Bird Walks in the Nina Mason Pulliam EcoLab

Nina Mason Pulliam EcoLab 3200 Cold Spring Road, Indianapolis, IN, United States

The Nina Mason Pulliam EcoLab is a wonderful place to bird watch, with over 165 different species sightings being recorded since 2002. No experience is necessary, and the hike will be led by one of the bird experts at Marian. The only things that are necessary are binoculars and a little bit of patience! We will meet at the St. Francis statue just west of the Allison Mansion on the Marian campus at 8:00 am every Wednesday starting March 3 and ending April 28. Bring water to drink and wear comfortable shoes. No reservation is required

Woodcock Walk – Carmel West Park

Jill Perelman Pavilion at West Park 3000 W 116th St, Carmel, IN, United States

Join Chuck Anderson, ABAS Field Trip Chair, for a trip to West Park in Carmel. Listen for the “peenting” sounds of a male woodcock as it attempts to court a female during the mating season. Watch the male perform an aerial display and listen to the sound of its twittering wings as it tries to attract a female. Depending on the rules at the time, masks will likely be required for most of the hike. There may be times we can spread out and take a quick break from the masks. Check the ABAS calendar to be sure the hike isn’t canceled.
