SUMMARY:Natural Area Preservation Restoration Day with Washtenaw Audubon Society
DESCRIPTION:Time to Give Back!  \nContinue the restoration work that started more than 50 years ago at Kuebler Langford! \nWe birders enjoy access to more than 1\,400 acres of natural areas managed by the City of Ann Arbor Natural Area Preservation (NAP). Let’s give back\, say thank you!. Come on out to help NAP restore biodiversity\, and help the birds at Kuebler Langford Nature Area. \nSince the time of its acquisition\, Kuebler Langford has been a park of importance to the people of Ann Arbor. As this natural area continues to recover from top-soil removal and compaction from the 1970’s\, we are left with areas of stunning prairie and forests. Because Kuebler Langford was fought for and won by the people of Ann Arbor\, it is a wonderful feeling to contribute to the ongoing effort to bring health and beauty back to this natural area. \nRegistration is required and you can do that at birding.cityofannarbor.volunteerhub.com \nLet’s show the city what a great group of birders can do!

SUMMARY:Restoration Workday at Searles Nature Preserve
DESCRIPTION:Did you know Washtenaw Audubon owns a nature preserve? We do! Located just a mile south of Rolling Hills County Park\, Searles Nature Preserve is a 50 acre natural area that hosts the headwaters of Stony Creek. Join us as we work to remove woody invasive species and create habitat for native plants and insects that support the birds we all love.   \nWith 97% of North American landbirds relying on animal protein to raise their young\, it is critical that there’s enough native habitat to support the populations of insects required for them to raise their young. Most of these insects\, largely moth and butterfly caterpillars\, have evolved to require specific\, native\, host plants for successful reproduction. This is why it is so important that we continue to foster the biodiversity necessary to support all the beautiful birds. More on this here.  \nTools and know how will be provided. Please bring leather work gloves\, wear long pants\, tall socks\, and closed-toe shoes or boots.  \nDirections: Meet at the entrance to the preserve on Bolla Road between Crane and Stony Creek Roads.
