Join us for a fun day of birding at the northern terminus of the Loess Hills. The count circle is home to the largest remaining prairies in Iowa, including Broken Kettle Grasslands, which is home to wintering Golden Eagles, Red-shafted Northern Flickers, a herd of American Bison, and formerly Iowa's only breeding population of Black-billed Magpies.

We will meet at 7:30 AM at the Westfield Community Center (215 Linden St., Westfield, IA) before breaking out into birding groups. We will meet back at the community center at 12:30 pm for a potluck lunch and again at 5 PM for the compilation.

The backup date for inclement weather is Thursday, December 18.
