SUMMARY:Otto Armleder Memorial Park With Lisa Conner
DESCRIPTION:Theme: Mid Fall Bird Walk \nLocation: Otto Armleder Memorial Park \nDate: Saturday\, November 1st\, 2025 \nMeet: At 8:00 AM at the Main Pavilion Parking Lot at Armleder Park (See directions below) \nLeader: Lisa Conner\, (765) 337-4669\, lmconner14@gmail.com  \nArmleder Park in jointly managed by the Hamilton County Great Parks and the Cincinnati City Parks. This 305 acre park has developed an excellent birding reputation\, mostly due to its unique habitats. The park lies in a flood plain along the west bank of the Little Miami River\, about a mile north of its confluence with the Ohio River. The park is prone to flooding\, which can be good for water birds but difficult to access at those times. The park also has a sizeable amount of open space\, including grassland and weedy fields\, an uncommon habitat in the Greater Cincinnati area. This in turn attracts many open country and grassland species. The wooded riparian corridor and sandbars along the Little Miami are very attractive to a number of birds. Brushy woodland edges\, athletic fields and abandoned gravel pits\, at least one which is permanently filled with water\, round out the habitats. All of this attracts a great diversity of species throughout the various seasons. Many trails meander through the park.  \nOur trip leader\, Lisa Conner\, is a skilled birder and naturalist and is also a current and valued board member of our Audubon Society. Lisa’s plan is to walk the trails through the diverse habitats this Park has to offer. We expect to find an abundance of late fall migrants\, winter residents and permanent residents. A variety of a diverse seasonal birds should be seen. Bald Eagles (a pair nests nearby) are also likely. While birds will be our main focus\, Lisa will not ignore any other aspects of nature we find along the way. So come on out with us and join Lisa for what should be an interesting morning walk in a unique park. If time permits\, Lisa may take a short side trip to another nearby birding hotspot\, depending upon birding reports closer to the date. \nVirtually all of this trip will be on foot\, but walking will be easy to moderate and at a birders pace over mostly level terrain. As always\, be prepared for muddy spots\, especially if conditions have been wet. Expect cold temperatures and dress accordingly. Good footwear will make your walk more enjoyable. It should go without saying that binoculars are necessary for seeing birds well. Restrooms are available at Armleder. This field trip will end sometime around noon. If you have any questions about this trip feel free to contact Lisa at her contacts listed above. \nDirections: \nOtto Armleder Park is located at 5057 Wooster Pike\, Cincinnati\, OH 45226. It is located directly north of Lunken Airport and Beechmont Avenue\, but can only be accessed from Wooster Pike. You can access Wooster Pike and Armleder Park from Columbia Parkway (US 50)\, and Red Bank Road from the north or Beechmont Avenue (Rt. 125) or Wilmer Avenue from the south. From Wooster Pike\, turn into Otto Armleder Park and follow the Park road straight to the stop sign at the T intersection. Then go straight ahead\, into the main Pavilion Parking lot where we will meet. \nOtto Armleder Website (Includes Google Directions & Park Map) \nhttps://www.cincinnati-oh.gov/cincyparks/visit-a-park/find-a-parkfacility/otto-armleder-memorial-park/ \nThe meeting place can be found here: Otto Armleder Pavilion \n(Contributed by Jay Stenger)

SUMMARY:Late Fall Botanical & Bird Walk With Denis Conover
DESCRIPTION:Theme: Late Fall Botanical & Bird Walk \nLocation: Spring Grove Cemetery \nDate: Sunday\, November 9th\, 2025 \nMeet: 10:00 A.M. at Spring Grove Cemetery\, along the road just beyond the tunnel from the main entrance on Spring Grove Avenue \nLeader: Denis Conover\, (513) 390-0863\, conovedg@hotmail.com \nJoin us for our monthly field trip to Spring Grove Cemetery. The trees and shrubs on this beautiful property should still be showing some brilliant fall colors on this date. Who better to answer our questions concerning how trees and other plants prepare for winter than our regular Spring Grove field trip leader\, noted botanist Denis Conover. Denis will focus on fall color and the seasonal change that all plants go through and will point out the diverse botanical community found at Spring Grove Cemetery. Denis is an ASO Board Member\, a UC biology professor\, and an expert botanist and naturalist.  \nDenis will identify the tremendous diversity of trees\, shrubs\, fallen leaves and other plants that can be found here and expound on their ecology. Denis will also point out our native flora\, invasive species\, and ornamental plantings as well as show us some of the champion trees found here. Denis has interests in all aspects of natural history and he will be sure to point out the birds and other fauna we are sure to see. So come along and join Denis to see the fall foliage on what should be a beautiful autumnal morning and gain some tips and insight on plant identification and their natural history. Late migrant songbirds and new winter arrivals should be plentiful and many should be seen.  \nParticipants should be prepared for a few hours of steady walking\, most of which will be relatively flat and on pavement\, but there will also be some walking off pavement on trails or in damp or wet grass. This will be a three to four walk. Denis is always willing to stay later if anyone wants to go longer. We suggest wearing good waterproof footwear and dress for cool to cold temperatures. Binoculars are not necessary to see plants but are recommended if you have them\, or want to see birds clearly. Restrooms are available at the cemetery office. Denis says rain will not cancel this trip. If you have any questions feel free to contact Denis. \nDirections: The Spring Grove Cemetery main entrance is located on Spring Grove Avenue just west of the Winton Road intersection. To find our meeting spot\, drive in through the main entrance gates and go straight. You will go through a short tunnel. Just beyond the tunnel\, pull over and park along the right side of the road.  \nSpring Grove Cemetery website: \nhttps://www.springgrove.org/locations/spring-grove-cemetery-arboretum/ \nSpring Grove Cemetery Map: \nhttps://www.springgrove.org/resource/maps/ \n  \nThe meeting place can be found here: Spring Grove Cemetery \n(Contributed by Jay Stenger)

DESCRIPTION:Theme: Late Fall Migration\nLocation: Caesar Creek State Park\nDate: Saturday\, November 15\, 2025\nMeet: 8:00 A.M. at the Swimming Beach Parking Lot at Caesar Creek SP (see the directions below)\nLeader: Bill Stanley\, (513) 324-2796\, tyrannus58@gmail.com \nLate fall migration will be well underway and the focus of this trip will be waterfowl (ducks\, geese\, swans) and\nwater birds (i.e. loons\, grebes\, gulls etc.). Over the years Caesar Creek Lake has attracted numerous rarities\nduring the fall and there is always a good chance for a surprise to show up. Franklin’s Gulls have been fairly\nregular in recent years\, and Lesser Black-backed Gull\, Red-throated Loon and Black Scoter have recently been\nseen. Of course the diverse habitats of this large area attracts a host of other species and we expect to find a\ndiversity of species including Bald Eagles and a number of other raptors as well as late migrant and winter\nresident songbirds. \nOur trip leader\, Bill Stanley\, is a skilled and expert birder and an experienced and well-rounded naturalist.\nMany of you know Bill as he has led many field trips for ASO and several other local conservation organizations\nover the years. Bill is a long time ASO advocate and is our ASO chapter’s current president.\nIn addition to checking many sites around Caesars Creek Lake\, Bill will possibly make stops at nearby Spring\nValley Wildlife Area and the Roxanna gravel pits if time allows. This will be longer than a half day trip\nextending well past noon\, so be sure to bring a lunch and drinks. The trip will consist mostly of driving from\none lake view to another\, interspersed with short walks here and there. Restrooms are available throughout\nthe area. Assume it will be cold and dress accordingly. Ordinary rain will not cancel this trip. Scopes will be\nuseful of course\, but if you don’t have one don’t let that stop you from coming. If you have any questions\nabout this trip feel free to contact Bill. \nDirections: We will meet at the Caesar Creek swimming beach parking lot. From Cincinnati\, take I-71 north\nfrom I-275 and go north for about 28 miles to the State Route 73 exit # 45. Turn left (west) onto SR 73 and go\nabout 5.5 miles.

SUMMARY:Cincinnati Bird Window Collisions: A Study in Bird Mortality and Building Mitigation
DESCRIPTION:Theme: Cincinnati Bird Window Collisions: A Study in Bird Mortality and Building Mitigation \nPresenter: Dr. Ron Canterbury \nDate: Thursday November 20\, 2025 \nTime: 7PM \nLocation: Sharon Center at Sharon Woods or on Zoom \n  \nEvery year an estimated ONE BILLION birds collide with windows in the United States alone! Due to their inability to detect glass facades on our many homes\, buildings\, and other glass structures\, they often do not survive these encounters with these man-made barriers. In the midst of a loss of 3 billion North American birds since 1970\, collisions with human structures figure to be a large contributor to the loss of our avian friends. \nLocally\, many birds perish as they pass over the glass-crowned hilltops of Clifton\, as well as other heavily built-up corridors\, such as downtown and the riverfront. Dr. Ron Canterbury\, an ornithologist at the University of Cincinnati\, has taken action to document and address this problem locally. Dr. Canterbury has been documenting window collision mortality on the UC campus for well over a decade\, and has also been monitoring local bird populations through other means\, such as leg banding. Please join us at 7pm the evening of Thursday\, November 20th at the Sharon Centre to hear Dr. Canterbury discuss window collisions and methods that can be taken to reduce the threats of glass on your property. He will also give us updates of the progress he has made in making the UC campus bird safe and any ways you may be able to contribute to making Cincinnati more bird-friendly! \nThis meeting is in person at Sharon Centre and on zoom as well. \nThe Meeting Place can be found here: Sharon Centre \nThe zoom invite for those who want to attend from home is: https://zoom.us/j/99976125788 \nPlease wait until 6:50 before clicking the link.  You will be admitted when the program is ready to begin. \n  \nContributed by Ryan Jorgenson
