SUMMARY:Winter Tracks  Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:So often we hike the woods and don’t realize what other creatures share it with us due to their secretive\, nocturnal habits. Snow cover can reveal all the traffic on our trails from a squirrel racing to a tree with the tracks of a fox in the chase. Let’s see what stories we can read in the snow. Meet at the Molnar Sanctuary on the west side of Page Road a few hundred yards north of Mennonite Road in Aurora.

SUMMARY:Winter Solstice Night Hike  Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:The Winter Solstice is just a few days away so come and celebrate some of the longest nights of the year just a few days after the December’s “Cold Moon” with a night hike in the winter woods.

SUMMARY:Christmas Bird Count
DESCRIPTION:It is Christmas Bird Count season. This is one of the longest citizen science projects in existence. 117 years ago ornithologist Frank Chapman converted folks from a horrendous tradition of the “Side Hunt” (where teams would shoot and collect as many bird and mammal carcasses as they could) to now counting and not disturbing the birds. An interesting history of this census can be found here. This is a National Audubon sanctioned event occurring from December 14 th through Jan 5 th. A group of at least 10 volunteers count all the birds seen or heard in a 15 mile diameter circle by going out in teams on specified routes and at the end of the 24-hour period tally and compile the data which is sent to National Audubon. It is great fun and you can participate as much or as little as you like. Look for one near you or go to the National Audubon website to find one.

SUMMARY:Wild Turkey Trek  Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Wild Turkeys are among the largest of our local native birds. Help us search for these alert and secretive birds earning their living while hiding in our forests. Once extirpated from Ohio they are now found in every county in the state. It is hard to believe that these 16 pound\, 46 inch long creatures with a 64 inch wingspan can blend in so well that we rarely see them. Meet at the Novak Sanctuary parking lot on the east side of Townline Road almost a mile north of State Route 82 on the Aurora/Mantua border.

SUMMARY:Prairie Hike  Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Photo by Laura Gooch. \nJoin us to see how prescribed burns can help to maintain a prairie. Frohring Meadow has a 100 acre tall grass prairie and wet sedge meadow habitat where grassland birds and migrating shorebirds can be found. Grassland habitat is unusual in our region\, therefore\, it attracts species not normally encountered. In early spring part of this prairie was burned to naturally maintain this herbaceous acreage. Over 40 species of prairie plants are encouraged and there is a demonstration garden plot showing examples of each one. Meet at the Frohring Meadow Park parking lot at 16780 Savage Road in Bainbridge Township 44023

SUMMARY:Twilight Hike  Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Twilight is a special time for wildlife when roosting activity is occurring for the diurnal (day-time) creatures and wakening activity is occurring for the nocturnal creatures. Of course the crepuscular (twilight) creatures are at their ideal time of day. It is a cooler time of day and the fading light and lengthening shadows allow more concealment so that animals move about more freely. Often we hear owls\, coyote\, fox\, raccoon\, and deer. Many birds will be singing their call to roost song. Let’s see what we can turn up! Meet at the Novak Sanctuary parking lot located on the east side of Townline Rd. less than a mile north of St. Rt. 82 on the Aurora/Mantua border.

SUMMARY:Annual Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the lovely Nature Center at Shaker Lakes for our Annual Meeting on June 4th. We will start with a short nature walk on the boardwalk around Shaker Lakes\, followed by our Meet & Greet Wine reception at four o’clock. \nThe chapter meeting follows and we have a special treat this year. We will be announcing the winners of our first ever photo contest! The winning photos will be on display throughout the evening. \nFollowing a buffet-style\, catered dinner\, welcome our special guest Jeffrey Hall\, a writer and photographer from Franklin\, Pa. Jeffrey’s articles and photographs have appeared in Living Bird\, NJ Audubon\, Underwater Naturalist\, and numerous other publications\, as well as the Pennsylvania Society for Ornithology’s website. His most recent presentation for ASGC was at last November’s Backyard Naturalist program. Jeffrey retired in 2011 after 25 years of teaching biology. He is president of Bartramian Audubon Society and also active in Seneca Rocks Audubon Society.  \nThe Nature Center at Shaker Lakes was founded in 1966 as the result of a grassroots community effort to preserve the Shaker Parklands from becoming the route for a new freeway connecting Cleveland’s East Side to downtown. The Parklands had been designated in the late 19th century as a natural green space\, set aside by the city of Cleveland for the benefit of its fast growing population. City and suburban residents found that they could enjoy the area along the Doan Brook\, from Warrensville Center Road through Rockefeller Park to Lake Erie\, and stay in touch with the natural world. \nThe Nature Center is located at 2600 South Park Boulevard in Cleveland\, OH. For directions\, contact the Nature Center at 216-321-5935 or email naturecenter@shakerlakes.org.\nSchedule of events: \n3:00 Bird walk along the boardwalk \n4:00 Meet & Greet Reception \n5:00 Chapter meeting and awards. Announcing Photo Contest Winners! \n6:00 Dinner \n7:00 Jeffrey Hall “A Galapagos Adventure” \nCost: $20 in advance (by May 30) or $22 at the door. Half price for seniors 65+ and children (15 and under) \nPlease make reservations at info@clevelandaudubon.org \nSend advance payment to: \nASGC Annual Dinner \nP.O.
