SUMMARY:Murmuration & Migrations: Spring Bird Walk
DESCRIPTION:Event Participants – Note new address for meet up: (218 Old Mill Road Coatesville\, Pennsylvania 19320) \n  \nCelebrate the rhythms of spring as we explore the magic of birds on the move. During this guided walk\, we’ll watch for migrating species\, observe local birds as they prepare for nesting season\, and take in the flutter of winged life returning to the landscape. \nLed by our preserve management staff\, you’ll get a personalized experience from someone who tends these lands on a daily basis. \nPlan for delays and prepare to leave a bit early for arrival to Sadsbury Woods. Please be aware\, ongoing construction has been scheduled to occur on Old Wilmington Road starting in April and going through the end of the year. Attendees will still have access to the preserve\, but please account for possible delays in your travel time. \nThe songbirds\, raptors\, waterfowl\, and shorebirds—about 300 recorded species—that rely on habitats under Natural Lands care are not just beautiful but also essential to the health of our planet. What’s more\, they are environmental indicators\, warning us of climate shifts and other ecosystem changes. \nLearn more about what Natural Lands is doing for bird conservation. \nCan’t attend this one? Check out more dates and locations in our Murmuration & Migrations: Spring Bird Walk series below:  \n\nTuesday\, April 21\, 8:30 – 11:00 AM\, ChesLen Preserve’s wetlands (Coatesville\, PA)\nThursday\, April 30\, 8:00 – 10:30 AM\, Hildacy Preserve (Media\, PA)\nSaturday\, May 2\, 8:00 – 10:30 AM\, Crow’s Nest Preserve (Elverson\, PA) \nWednesday\, May 6\, 8:00 – 10:30 AM\, Willisbrook Preserve (Malvern\, PA) \nThursday\, May 7\, 8:00 – 10:30 AM\, Summerhill Preserve (Media\, PA) \nTuesday\, May 12\, 8:30 – 11:00 AM\, Stroud Preserve (West Chester\, PA) \nThursday\, May 14\, 8:00 – 10:30 AM\, Wawa Preserve (Media\, PA) \nFriday\, May 15\, 8:00 – 10:30 AM\, Sadsbury Woods Preserve (Coatesville\, PA) \nThursday\, May 21\, 8:30 – 11:00 AM\, Peacedale Preserve (Landenberg\, PA) \nSaturday\, May 23\, 8:00 – 10:30 AM\, Green Hills Preserve (Mohnton\, PA) \nThursday\, June 4\, 8:00 – 10:30 AM\, Hildacy Preserve (Media\, PA)

SUMMARY:Annual Nesting Bird Census
DESCRIPTION:Grab binoculars and join us in counting birds at Mariton. Since 1981\, staff and volunteers have conducted an annual nesting bird census to count the number of species and individual birds breeding at this 200-acre preserve.   \nThe census results serve as an important tool to help assess habitat management strategies. Healthy habitats sustain various nesting species\, including flycatchers\, tanagers\, thrushes\, and warblers. Mariton’s woodlands are particularly important to birds like the Wood Thrush\, which requires large forests for nesting.   \nThe songbirds\, raptors\, waterfowl\, and shorebirds—about 300 recorded species—that rely on habitats under Natural Lands care are not just beautiful but also essential to the health of our planet. What’s more\, they are environmental indicators\, warning us of climate shifts and other ecosystem changes.   \nLearn more about what Natural Lands is doing for bird conservation. \n

SUMMARY:In Color Birding Book Club: Migrations
DESCRIPTION:Join our partners\, Philadelphia-based In Color Birding\, for their very first Book Club gathering\, where bird joy meets storytelling. \nOn Wednesday\, June 10th\, we are coming together at the Parkway Central Library to dive into Migrations by Charlotte McConaghy\, a powerful\, atmospheric novel that follows one woman’s journey alongside the last Arctic terns in a rapidly changing world. It is a story about movement\, loss\, love\, and what we hold onto when everything feels uncertain\, and we cannot wait to hear what it stirred up for you. \nThis will not be a lecture. It is a conversation. We will spend about 90 minutes reflecting on what moved us\, what challenged us\, and what we are still sitting with. Whether you finished the book\, started it\, or are just curious\, you are welcome here. \nLike all of In Color Birding Club’s gatherings\, this space is rooted in community\, curiosity\, and connection. Come as you are. Bring your thoughts\, your questions\, your perspectives\, or just come to listen. \nNeed a copy of the book? You can borrow it through the Free Library or Libby\, grab one from your local bookstore\, or use Bookshop.org or Libro.fm\, and if cost is a barrier\, In Color Birding has you covered. \nWe’ll be gathering on the 4th floor in a conference room which holds 40 people comfortably. Small refreshments will be served. The space is fully accessible\, with elevator access and restrooms on the same floor. Easy to reach by SEPTA\, and parking support is available. \nCome build something new with us\, a space for stories\, reflection\, and community. \n		\n			register now
