Spring
Nature Walks on Elkhart Hill
Send a link to a friend
[April 13, 2015]
The Elkhart Historical Society is
“Going Wild” in April. Each Saturday in April (and including May 2nd) by
reservation, guided wild flower nature walks will be offered that share the
beauty and variety of the ephemeral spring wild flowers on Elkhart Hill.
|
The guides for the flower walks are Gillette
Ransom and Susan Jeffers, a team that has done a lot of research not
only on the flowers but much of the folklore and medicinal uses in
the past.
The finale on May 2, includes a 6:00am or 4:00 p.m. bird walk, with
Ornithologist Rhetta Jack, Lara Borgerson, and Joe Funk, all
superior birders with fascinating knowledge of the birds not only of
Elkhart Hill but in many places around the world.
Come sharpen your skills or learn for the first time. A walk will be
given at 10 a.m. which will combine birds, wildflowers and lunch, at
the Wildhare Cafe.
See the Elkhart Historical website for a reservation form at
www.elkharthistorical society.org. Once you are ready to
make your reservations, please call (217) 947-2238 for reservations.
You will receive a confirming call.
