SUMMARY:The Secret Life of Birds
DESCRIPTION:Join Adam McCosham\, licensed bird bander\, for this engaging outdoor program at Western Wildlife Corridor’s Kirby Nature Center\, on September 16 at 8:00 a.m. No matter if you are learning to ID birds\, or want to learn how they nest or how they migrate\, one way to learn more is to observe a bird banding session. Bird banding is the practice of safely applying a band or tag to part of the bird\, usually the leg\, for data collection and individual identification. Banding birds allows researchers to learn the migration patterns\, life span\, breeding territory\, and feeding areas of different bird species. Identifying these patterns and behaviors within bird populations plays a critical role in designing and implementing conservation programs for different species of birds. But not just anyone can place bands on birds\, you must have the required permits and approvals. \nJoin us for this interactive outdoor program for a chance to watch bander Adam McCosham in action\, while getting a chance to see various bird species up close and personal. You will learn how to identify birds in the hand as well as see how bird banders age\, weigh and sex the birds as well as how they affix the band. Banding offers an intimate glimpse into the behavior of birds. \nAdam is currently a Conservation and Parks Senior Program Manager with the Great Parks of Hamilton County. He has a degree in Natural Resource Management. Adams has spent the last four years training to band birds and loves passing on his knowledge of natural history to others. \nKirby Nature Center is located at 2 East Main Street\, Addyston OH 45001. The event is free\, but preregistration is required because space is limited. You can register at https://secure.givelively.org/event/western-wildlife-corridor-inc/the-secret-life-of-birds-478e3058-2a81-413b-8344-d4d5b39b1926.

SUMMARY:Field Trip - Fall Songbird Migration
DESCRIPTION:Fall Songbird Migration \nLocation: Mt. Airy Forest \nSaturday\, September 23\, 2023 \nMeet:  At 8:00 a.m. in the parking lot at Everybody’s Tree House on Trail Ridge Road in Mt. Airy Forest (see directions below). \nLeader: Jack Stenger\, (513) 503-3389\, jackstenger@gmail.com \n  \n  \nFall songbird migration will be near peak on this morning walk\, and both residents and migrant songbirds should abound. Our trip leader will be Jack Stenger. Jack is an expert birder\, a skilled naturalist and a long time ASO advocate. His field skills\, particularly his recognition of bird calls and songs\, are off the charts. With Jack’s help we expect to find many species of warblers as well as many other songbirds including flycatchers\, vireos\, swallows\, thrushes\, tanagers\, sparrows\, grosbeaks\, and buntings among others. Hawks\, cuckoos\, hummingbirds and woodpeckers will be present and even Wild Turkeys are likely. \n  \nMt. Airy Forest is a large City of Cincinnati Park that consists of 1\,459 acres of mostly woodlands that range from mature forest\, mixed conifer-deciduous woodlands\, pine groves\, woodland edges\, tree lined streams\, open park land and an arboretum. There are miles of hiking trails and roadsides\, making birding access easy. Mt. Airy also acts as a “migrant trap” during spring and fall\, as from the sky this large “island” of green stands out from the surrounding urban sea and thus attracts many birds. \n  \nJacks plan is to walk and bird around at least a few different sections of the park\, beginning at the well-marked and very obvious Everybody’s Tree House. Other than to move from one section of the park to another\, this trip will consist mostly of walking. Most of the area is relatively flat and walking will be at a leisurely birders pace. Restrooms are available in the park. If you expect to see birds binoculars are necessary. Water and comfortable shoes will make your walk more enjoyable. The trip will break up around noon. If you have any questions feel free to contact Jack. \n  \nDirections: Mt. Airy Forest is located at 5083 Colerain Avenue. To get to our meeting spot from the Mt. Airy Forest Colerain entrance\, turn into the park onto Blue Spruce Road and immediately turn left onto Trail Ridge Road. Drive .4 tenths of a mile on Trail Ridge Road to the parking lot for the Everybody’s Tree House. \n  \nVisit the Mt. Airy Forest website for further information. \nhttps://www.cincinnati-oh.gov/cincyparks/visit-a-park/find-a-parkfacility/mt-airy-forest/ \n  \n(Contributed by Jay Stenger)
