Join the Phoebes for our second Phoebes Walk & Afternoon Tea, graciously hosted by the Turkel family. We’ll begin the morning with a casual bird walk led by Phoebe Roxanne Featherly at Dante Fascell Park where we’ll look for Red-bellied Woodpecker, Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, Downy Woodpecker, Eastern Phoebe, Red-eyed Vireo and the warblers: Northern Parula, Black and White, Prairie, Black-throated Blue and Green Warblers to name a few. We’ll search for herons, egrets and Limpkin along the canal as well as scanning the sky for winter raptors…Short-tailed and Red-tailed Hawk! Then we’ll stroll the Gardens of the Nuehring Property, once home to beloved Tropical Audubon friends and patrons Elane & Ron Nuehring. After birding the gardens in their honor, we’ll sit down for an afternoon tea and treats, donning our best wide-brimmed hats.
WHAT: A morning bird walk and afternoon tea for female nature enthusiasts.
WHEN: Sunday, November 13, 2022 from 8:30 AM - 1:30 PM
WHERE: We will meet promptly at 8:30 AM in the parking lot at Dante Fascell Park, 8700 SW 57th Ave, South Miami, FL 33143. We’ll do a loop around the park then bird our way to and through the Nuehring property (0.8-mile walk). Afterwards, we’ll have an Afternoon Tea at the neighboring Turkel family home. (If you wish to drop off your hats and/or perishable food at the Turkel residence before the walk, please drop off items between 8am and 8:30am. Address will be provided to registrants).
