SUMMARY:Field Trip: Loess Bluffs National Wildlife Refuge
DESCRIPTION:Join us for one of our most popular annual field trips! Each year\, we’re treated to an incredible display of thousands of Snow Geese\, swans\, ducks\, and dozens—sometimes hundreds—of Bald Eagles. \nWe’ll gather at the Loess Bluffs Visitor Center parking lot around 8:45 a.m. and begin our first loop of the 10-mile auto tour route at 9:00. We’ll return to the Visitor Center parking lot around 12:30 p.m. for lunch and a restroom break before making a second pass in the afternoon. Please bring lunch\, snacks\, and binoculars as well as a spotting scope and an FRS radio\, if you have them. Dress in layers—conditions are often cold and windy\, and we’ll be stopping often to set up spotting scopes. \nThis trip is open to all\, and you’re welcome to come and go as your schedule allows. We hope you can stay through dusk to witness a breathtaking sunset and the spectacle of thousands of blackbirds descending on the refuge. Contact trip leader Mark Land at kestrelland@gmail.com or 816-590-9814 with any questions. \n***Please note: This trip is very weather dependent.
