SUMMARY:Speaker Series | Kara Snow - Project Pileated Woodpecker
DESCRIPTION:** THIS IS A ZOOM-ONLY PRESENTATION ** \n** Co-Sponsored with Land of Lakes Bird Alliance ** \nReservation and Zoom Link \nKara Snow – Project Pileated Woodpecker: Characterizing Tree Cavity and Use by Minnesota’s Wildlife (One-year update!) \nThe Pileated Woodpecker is a keystone species in Minnesota’s forests\, creating large cavities that many other wildlife species later use. In this talk\, Ms. Snow will share an update from the first year of her Pileated Woodpecker project\, including the methods we used to locate and monitor nesting cavities across a gradient of forest management. \nMs. Snow will touch on some of the challenges she and her team faced in the field\, early successes from the first season\, and what they are beginning to learn about habitat use. She will also highlight ways the public can help by sharing observations of Pileated Woodpeckers and cavity use\, which can play an important role in supporting this research going forward. \nPhoto-Rolland-Swain-Audubon

SUMMARY:Birding through the Months at Silverwood Park
DESCRIPTION:This is the 3rd of a 4-trip Silverwood Park Tuesday birding experience (February through May). Attend one or all the trips! \nSilverwood Park is a beautiful urban park on the shores of Silver Lake. The park’s variety of habitats — oak forest\, marsh\, grassland\, and lakefront — makes it a great birding destination\, with over 180 species sighted there. \nBirding at a single location over several months can be a great way to get started. This series of four field trips will repeat popular excursions from last year\, giving participants the chance to get to know the park and watch for different birds each month as the seasons change. In addition to getting to know the birds of Silverwood\, participants will also be introduced to basic birding techniques and tools\, including digital resources. Participants are encouraged to bring their own binoculars; a few extra pairs will be available. \nDIRECTIONS:     Meet at the doors leading into the Visitor Center from the parking lot. Field trips will be conducted in most weather\, with the exception of heavy rain.  45.046808\, -93.224715 \nREGISTRATION:     No registration necessary. Come for any of the sessions–attending all is not required. \nDIFFICULTY:     Most paths are paved\, but may be icy in the winter. Walks will range from 1-1.5 miles. \nLEADER:      Jen Miller and Liz Richards; email birdingjen@gmail.com with any questions \n  \nTuesday\, February 24: 2-4 PM   \nBirding in the winter is a great way to get comfortable with the species that live in the park year-round–plus\, there are no leaves on the trees to get in the way of seeing birds! This month\, we’ll look for common Minnesota winter birds such as chickadees and nuthatches\, along with several woodpecker species. We might even get lucky and see the park’s resident great horned owls as they start nesting. \nTuesday\, March 17: 2-4 PM \nIn March\, we will begin to see some early migrants returning to the park — some waterfowl and perhaps robins and red-winged blackbirds. We’ll also notice an increase in bird songs that we will learn to identify. \nTuesday\, April 14: 2-4 PM \nApril showers melt the ice on Silver Lake\, which brings more waterfowl\, along with sparrows\, swallows\, and maybe even some early warblers or phoebes. With some luck\, we might catch a glimpse of a migrating shorebird along the lakeshore or see the fluffy head of an owlet. \nTuesday\, May 12: 2-4 PM \nMay brings warblers\, warblers\, and more warblers! We’ll also begin to see some of the park’s beautiful summer residents\, including orioles\, rose-breasted grosbeaks\, and bluebirds. While the leaves returning to the trees make seeing birds more challenging\, the park’s variety of species in May makes this one of the most exciting times of year for birding. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Wednesday Nights with Woodcocks at AHATS
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday Nights with Woodcocks at Arden Hills Army Training Site (AHATS) I\n\nWednesday\, April 15 and 22 (attend one or both) @ 8:00 pm – 10 pm\n\n\n4761 Hamline Ave N.\, Arden Hills\, MN \nThe Arden Hills Army Training Site (AHATS) is a 2\,370-acre military training area for the Minnesota National Guard and the Minnesota Department of Military Affairs. Its vast area and variety of habitats are also used for environmental and wildlife conservation programs. Over 170 species of birds have been recorded at the site. \nSpring American Woodcock courtship display flights are wonderful to behold. The Woodcocks like wet meadows and open woods. The AHATS habitats host breeding Woodcocks each year. So we hope your trip is exciting and very rewarding. We will park in the main parking lot and walk a little over 1/2 mile or so on the gravel road. We’ll stop whenever we hear the Woodcocks making their “Peent!” call. Or when we see them making their whirligig flight into the night sky. \n\n\nDIRECTIONS: Enter the AHATS campus on the Hamline Ave extension just north of MN Hwy 96. Stay on the Hamline extension to the main building at 4761 Hamline Avenue N. The site has restricted access. You will drive through an automated gate and proceed to the main parking lot of the main building on site. \nINFORMATION:  We’ll park in the lot and gather for a short orientation. Then we will walk along a gravel road. There is a slight incline. Bring Bright flashlights if you like. Laser point lights may also be used. But keep the lights out of people’s faces. Children of all ages are welcome. No dogs please. Dress for the weather. Loner binoculars will be available. \nREGISTRATION:  Registration not required. \nACCESSIBILITY:  We will be walking 1 to 1.5 miles round-trip on a gravel road. There is a slight incline. An outdoor porta-potty is on site at around the halfway point. \nLEADERS:    Mary Lee\, AHATS Environmental Protection Specialist & Kiki Sonnen\, kikisonnen@gmail.com\, Saint Paul Bird Alliance President \nPhoto: Jianbo Fei/Audubon Photography Awards

SUMMARY:Woodcocks of Rush City
DESCRIPTION:Woodcocks of Rush City \nApril 18\, 19\, OR 20 (Sat\, Sun\, or Mon.) – 7:30-9:15 PM \nExact Date TBD – Registration Required \nThe American Woodcock song and sky dance are remarkably entertaining. They migrate in the spring and fall using the prime habitats of the St Croix River valley\, and some breed near Rush City\, MN\, in early upland successional forest. This truly is an incredible woodland shorebird with unique adaptations for seeing\, feeding\, communicating\, and courting. Paying little attention to bird watchers\, courting males spiral high\, then come twittering down to land in nearly the same place as the take-off. \nA special opportunity to view Woodcocks performing the sky dance is being offered as a Saint Paul Bird Alliance field trip\, led by Ed and Chase Davies and John Hendrickson. They will lead a discussion on the unique qualities of American Woodcocks and what makes the place so special for both resident and migrant populations\, followed by a very short walk to the viewing area. \nViewers usually hear many males “peenting”\, have several birds to approach for closer observation\, and more often than not the ability to see a woodcock fly by at close range\, all in an easily accessible area. (Of course\, there are no guarantees\, wild birds being what they are\, even when so single-minded.) \nTHE EXACT DATE is weather-dependent. It will be chosen to allow for the best overall conditions for viewing male woodcock sky dances. If you have any interest and availability on any of the dates of April 18\, 19\, or 20 (Sat\, Sun\, Mon.)\, please register so we can email you the exact date on Friday\, April 17\, no later than 8 PM. \nThis approach of choosing one night from among three allows us to take advantage of the best overall weather conditions\, which should extend the viewing distance and time into the deepening dusk. The best weather would be a cool\, clear evening with low humidity\, which is why you need warm clothes (more on that below). \nREGISTRATION: Registration is required to receive the email with the exact date and any other pertinent information. Please register by sending Ed an email at eddavies60@gmail.com.  Include your name\, mobile phone number\, and email address. Please be sure your email address is correct. \nSPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS: As darkness falls\, so does the thermometer. Dress much warmer than you think necessary – plan for at least 15ᵒ degrees cooler than where you live. Warm footwear\, gloves or mittens\, a knit hat. . . consider wind pants. Flashlights are not needed; you will learn and experience why. \nDRIVING DIRECTIONS: Drive time from the northern junction of 35W/35E to the parking area is 40 minutes at the posted speed limits. Drive north on I-35 to Exit 159 for Rush City. Turn right (east) onto 4th Street/MN 361. Travel 1.4 miles through Rush City to the only stop sign on this road. Turn left onto Bremer\, which soon becomes Forest Blvd. Travel 2.3 miles and turn right onto Co 56 (aka 530th Street). Travel east on County Road 56 for 4.4 miles to where County Road 56 turns right (south). SLOWLY turn right and immediately turn left down into the parking area. We will help you to park tightly and face in a direction for easier departure. We plan to all depart at the same time. \nACCESSIBILITY    Walk 150 yards across an unmowed field with grasses and scattered shrubs; no toilet or water at the site. \nLEADERS: Ed and Chase Davies and John Hendrickson.  Contact Ed at eddavies60@gmail.com to register. If necessary\, on the day of the event\, call Ed’s cell at 612-819-1196 or Chase’s at 651-246-9754. \n  \n  \n  \n
