SUMMARY:Nashville Chapter Field Trip - Saturday\, June 7th - Larkspur Conservation Area\, Sumner County
DESCRIPTION:Located in northern Sumner County\, Larkspur contains one of the finest examples of mature hardwood forest in our region\, and together with the adjacent Nature Conservancy property at Taylor Hollow they support large numbers breeding tanagers\, thrushes\, and warblers\, including Cerulean.  The area also contains a small cedar glade and several grassy fields which complete the habitat mosaic.  Larkspur is managed as a natural burial site\, and you will notice several memorial headstones throughout the park.  The gravel trails are well maintained\, but steep in places so sturdy footwear is a must and a hiking stick may come in handy.  We’ll meet at 7:00am at the trailhead; the address is 155 Bear Carr Rd\, Westmoreland\, TN.  The gravel parking lot can only accommodate 8 to 10 cars\, so carpooling is highly encouraged – please make arrangements amongst yourselves.  A good meeting place is the Wal-Mart in Gallatin. \nFor information please email ms722@bellsouth.net

SUMMARY:Nashville Chapter Field Trip - Saturday\, May 17th Bells Bend
DESCRIPTION:We will explore the fields and woods of Bells Bend Park in the hopes of locating not only all of the breeding birds found here (which include bobwhite\, buntings\, orioles\, chat\, yellowthroat\, Prairie and Blue-winged Warblers\, and in the last few years\, Dickcissel)\, but also some of the later migrating warblers\, flycatchers\, and grassland birds such as Bobolink that should be moving through during this time.  In order to maximize the number of birds seen and take advantage of cooler morning temps\, we’ll plan on an early start and cover at least 3 to 4 miles\, meaning this walk will be on the slightly more intense side.  We will meet at the visitor center at 6:00am.  Waterproof footwear and bug spray are highly recommended. \nFor additional information on any field trips\, please email ms722@bellsouth.net

SUMMARY:First Radnor Lake Wednesday morning Walk - April 23rd
DESCRIPTION:The first of 4 Wednesday moring Radnor Lake bird walks will be Wednesday\, April 23rd. \nWe meet BY 7:30 am in the west parking lot (off Otter Creek Rd) of Radnor Lake State Park near the kiosk.  Melinda Welton will be there to greet you as she’s the volunteer leader this week. \nThe route is the same each week so if you get caught in morning traffic you can ‘catch up’ with the group.  We go from the parking lot up the paved road\, across the spillway and bridge and down the trail to Long Bridge where the walk officially ends.  Feel free to continue on around the lake if you have time. \nThese walks are open to the public and free of charge.  Stay an hour or all morning.  We’d love to have you join us if you can.
