SUMMARY:Guided Walk: Winter Birds on the Barton Creek Greenbelt with Save Texas Streams
DESCRIPTION:Meet us at mile zero of the Barton Creek Greenbelt at 8:30 am\, January 31st for a beginner-friendly bird walk. We will have a couple of binoculars to borrow\, but you are encouraged to bring your own. I will go over some binocular fundamentals before walking and stopping along the trail to listen to and see some birds. Expect to hike for 1.5 miles and some of that might be in the dry creek bed. \nYou will learn about the winter crew of birds that are seasonally here and the residents who are here year-around. \nThe walk will be led by Save Texas Streams’ Board Vice President and Capital Area Master Naturalist\, Andrew Harrod. Andrew graduated with a degree in Wildlife and Fisheries\, has led many bird walks at McKinney Falls State Park\, and helps out with annual winter bird censuses that take place locally.

SUMMARY:Sandhill Crane Watch Party January 29 with Coastal Prairie Conservancy
DESCRIPTION:Each winter\, the Katy Prairie becomes home to flocks of birds fleeing cooler climates for the season. Join local birding enthusiasts to see one of the most charismatic of these species\, the sandhill crane\, come in to roost on the prairie for the evening. You also will see waterfowl and other birds! $20 registration fee. \nMeet at 4:00 PM at the Indiangrass Preserve Field Office. The group will be leaving promptly at 4:15 PM. The cranes sometimes shift their roost sites a bit\, so our guides will be scouting within a few days of the field trip to determine a good viewing location. Depending on where that is\, we may be doing a bit of driving over field roads\, but not rough ones (we can combine into vehicles best suited for this). Bring binoculars and camera and dress in camouflage or dark colors; a spotting scope could be helpful. Space is limited\, so reserve your spot today!

SUMMARY:Volunteer Workday at the TreeFolks Nursery
DESCRIPTION:In 2023\, TreeFolks embarked on a new project that will greatly enhance our mission and allow us to plant more trees! \nWe started our own native tree nursery where we are growing saplings and bigger trees in pots.

SUMMARY:Neighbors Planting trees at Bethany Cemetery with TreeFolks
DESCRIPTION:TreeFolks is partnering with the Bethany Cemetery Association and Black Austin Tours to plant trees in Bethany Cemetery.

TreeFolks is planting and providing follow-up care for three years and helping to reverse historic inequities in funding and resources in the Eastern Crescent. \nOur events are family-friendly\, and no experience or tools are needed. We will train everyone at the beginning of the event\, and provide all tools\, materials\, gloves\, water\, and snacks. \nVolunteers will have an opportunity to tour the cemetery during the event with Black Austin Tours. \nBethany Cemetery is Austin’s oldest Black cemetery.
