[nfbmi-talk] Birding by Ear and Michigan Owl night

[Donna Posont]

Hey Bird Brains and others, The time is here to start our birding by ear 
class for the new year. Though it will soon be spring and our song birds 
will be returning to the north we are going to dedicate this month to 
studying our wwinter birds. On Saturday February 19 we will be meeting at 
10:30 a.m. in the Environmental Interpretive Center on the University of 
Michigan Dearborn campus at 4901 Evergreen. If you can stay past noon please 
bring your lunch and join us in the quiet bird room where we will hear about 
all the visitors to the birdfeeders. As you may remember our Michigan Owl 
night was delayed  a couple of weeks ago due to snowfall. So this Saturday 
we will be going to Nature Discovery in Williamston. From six until eight we 
will be learning about Michigan owls and then walking through the night 
woods to talk to screech owls or whatever creatures we may chance to meet. 
If you can join us for our visit to Nature Discovery please let me know. We 
have transportation leaving from Dearborn and Lansing. If all this bird 
activity is not enough for you, in the afternoon there will be opportunity 
to learn how to tap the trees for maple sap which eventually becomes 
delicious maple syrup. For more information on a day packed full of fun with 
friends and nature, ingredients to make a wonderful life, please contact me 
at 313-220-8140. I look forward to hearing from you and sharing nature 
adventures together, Donna Posont
