This is an update on our upcoming the field trip to Chesney Prairie Natural Area near Siloam Springs (Sunday, July 11, meet 8 AM). The field trip at Chesney is an opportunity to visit a native Tallgrass Prairie in FULL BLOOM, walking through the area on a mowed trail--with many birds, of course. EVERYONE is welcome: you do not need to be a member of Audubon to participate. For details, call Joe Neal 479-521-1858.
