Hi All, I hope this is an appropriate posting for this terrific list. Please know that you are invited to join us for a free program at Creasey Mahan Nature Preserve in Goshen, KY tomorrow from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Our Grassland Bird Saturday will feature experts - Horace Brown and Portia Brown (unrelated) - to join me in talking about native grassland birds and how to create appropriate habitat. We'll start inside with a slide show and then take a meandering bird walk around a meadow. This program is being offered in partnership with the Louisville Audubon Society and will be featuring information about a recent award by National Audubon Society and Toyota - The Together Green Innovation Award - which is helping the Preserve convert acreage to native grasslands. For more details, please visit www.KYNaturePreserve.org. Thank you and I hope to see you tomorrow, Tavia Tavia P.
