Penitentiary Glen Reservation

&nbsp;&nbsp; Blackbrook Audubon welcomes Dr. Sean Williams as he describes "Mixed-species Bird Flocks in Peru" in a presentation at Lake Metroparks Penitentiary Glen Reservation. The program is open to everyone and begins at 7:00 pm at 8668 Kirtland-Chardon Road in Kirtland.
&nbsp;&nbsp; An Assistant Professor at Cuyahoga Community College, Sean spent over a year doing field work in the rainforest of Peru for his PhD dissertation. Sean says “Our Ohioan mixed-species flocks are ephemeral; individuals transiently form, join, or leave flocks at their convenience. By contrast, understory mixed-species flocks in the Amazon are permanent, a unique feature in the animal kingdom." Aside from his research, he will share adventures from living in a lowland rainforest, including animals he encountered there like monkeys, cats, snakes and Harpy Eagles.
&nbsp;&nbsp; Blackbrook will sell raffle tickets for a 40” x 64” handmade quilt that evening. Proceeds from the ticket sales will go toward Blackbrook's 2027 Education Scholarship awarded to a college student studying a conservation major. The winning ticket for the quilt will be drawn at Blackbrook's November 17 program. The winner need not be present.
&nbsp;&nbsp; Blackbrook provides coffee and light refreshments. They encourage program attendees to bring their own beverage containers so they will be eligible to participate in the Bring Your Own Mug raffle. The drawing for a $25 gift card will be held at a future program meeting and the winner need not be present.
&nbsp;&nbsp; Registration is not required for the evening's free program.
&nbsp;&nbsp; Blackbrook Audubon covers Ashtabula, Geauga and Lake Counties as the local chapter of National Audubon Society. For more information, email blackbrookaud@aol.com. Follow Blackbrook Audubon Society on Facebook for updates.Photo: Amazonian Plain-Xenops courtesy of Sean Williams

The Rookery 10110 Cedar Road, Munson Township, OH

&nbsp;&nbsp; Blackbrook will host a bird walk at <a href="https://geaugaparkdistrict.org/park/the-rookery/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">The Rookery</a> in Geauga County. Birders of all skill levels are invited to join this walk south of Fowler's Mill Golf Course.
&nbsp;&nbsp; The Rookery is part of the Chagrin River Corridor Important Bird Area, a designation by the National Audubon Society. High-quality wetlands, riparian habitat along the state-designated scenic Chagrin River and a beech-maple forest provide habitats for 179 bird species <a href="https://ebird.org/hotspot/L1550970/bird-list" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">listed on eBird.</a>
&nbsp;&nbsp; Blackbrook's first visit here last month yielded 34 species including Gray-cheeked Thrush, Cedar Waxwings, Swamp Sparrows and two Sandhill Cranes.
&nbsp;&nbsp; As the group birds the 1.5-mile, gravel Interurban Trail, they’ll follow the same route taken by the Cleveland &amp; Eastern Traction Company's electric-powered trains, which ran from 1899-1925. The Rookery is the site of the C&amp;E Junction between lines serving Cleveland to Chardon and a branch south to Burton and Middlefield. The restroom does not have running water.
&nbsp;&nbsp; Since Geauga Park District will close The Rookery for hunting Sunday, November 22, Blackbrook will sponsor a walk at Headwaters Park instead at 8:00 am. Park by the Headwaters boathouse at 13365 Old State Road in Claridon Twp.
&nbsp;&nbsp; Blackbrook will be back at The Rookery January 24 since the December walk would be the same day as their Christmas Bird Count, which is conducted in Lake County.
&nbsp;&nbsp; Blackbrook Audubon will have binoculars to lend out at this IBA walk. Email <a href="mailto:blackbrookaud@aol.com">blackbrookaud@aol.com</a> for more information.
