SUMMARY:Field Trip: Marais des Cygnes Wildlife Area
DESCRIPTION:We’ll meet at 7am at the parking lot in front of Price Shopper near 119th and Metcalf in Overland Park to carpool south along 69 to Linn County.  This trip will likely last until the afternoon and it is recommended that you bring snacks\, lunch\, and/or water along in the car.  We’ll plan to drive south and stop at Unit F and walk approximately a mile along the trail to the south end of West unit to look at shorebirds. The trail is grass covered and can be muddy. Boots and appropriate footwear is highly recommended as is spring them and pants with permethrin ahead of time to help mitigate ticks and chiggers. From Unit F we will likely visit Unit C\, Unit E\, or Unit G for additional scoping of shorebirds.  Where we go will depend on water levels and conditions.  If the water levels are not conducive for shorebirds in Linn County but are elsewhere (Perry\, Clinton\, or Hillsdale) the destination may be changed near the trip and could include a $5 Kansas State park entrance fee if you do not have an annual pass.\n\n\nMalcolm Gold is the trip leader and questions can be directed to him at malcolmgold@gmail.com. Individuals of all experience and skill levels are welcome to attend. Malcolm will have a couple of extra binoculars with if you are brand new to birding and would like to borrow them for a couple of hours.

SUMMARY:General Meetings & Programs: Four Seasons In the Sax-Zim Bog
DESCRIPTION:In-person event presented by Clinton Dexter-Nienhaus\, Head Naturalist with Friends of Sax-Zim Bog. This northern Minnesota destination is perhaps best known for winter bird watching opportunities\, especially for those interested in northern owls\, finches\, and boreal forest specialists. What visitors don’t realize is that many animals which survive ice\, snow\, and temperatures well below zero are resident and can be seen year round! The greater Sax-Zim Bog ecosystem has a lot to offer in every season\, playing host to diverse ecology and biology. This presentation will include background on the region\, a little about the Friends of Sax-Zim Bog\, and highlight the seasons that makes this area so unique!
