SUMMARY:Winter Tree Identification Walk
DESCRIPTION:Want to learn the difference between a hickory and a hackberry? How about a beech from a basswood? Did you know oak species are pretty easy to distinguish from their bark? Join us for an interactive winter hike to learn to ID common Michigan trees with their bark\, buds and twigs! As always\, we will share interesting ecological information and paint a holistic picture of this ecosystem. \nDirections: Meet at the south Newport Rd trailhead in the parking lot. There is an AAATA bus stop and bike racks near the entrance. \nLeader: Ed Trager & Matthew Spoor \n  \nAll are welcome and encouraged to join us.

SUMMARY:Restoration Workday at Searles Nature Preserve
DESCRIPTION:Did you know Washtenaw Bird & Nature Alliance (formerly Washtenaw Audubon Society) owns a nature preserve? We do! Searles Nature Preserve is a 50 acre natural area that hosts the headwaters of Stony Creek. Did you also know that Ninety-seven percent of North American landbirds require animal\, primarily insect\, protein to raise their young? Most insects require specific\, native\, host plants for successful reproduction and this is why supporting a biodiverse ecosystem of native plants is so important. More on this here: https://tinyl.io/93Ka \nJoin us as we work to remove invasive species and improve biodiversity to support the birds we love. Tools 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.
