Bird Club braved the swamps, savannahs & seas of Florida during our spring break trip! With 174 species over 9 days, our re-tern to the Sunshine State was as magnificent as a frigatebird and we pelican’t get enough of it! 🐊☀️
Bird Club reeled in the semester with a kayaking trip on Big Darby Creek! We shore were ex-krill-arated to spend our Reading Day morning with Trapper John's Canoe Livery. Thank you so much for such a wonder-fowl year, and we hope everybirdy has a chickadee-lightful summer!
Happy Spring Big Day!! On Saturday, members of bird clubs from far and wide grabbed their bins and set out in teams in order to find the most species possible in one day 👀
It’s no April Fool’s prank: our merch store is now live!! Come and get it while it’s hot 🔥

We visited Whetstone Wetlands along with the Fish & Wildlife Society and learned about the Stream and Wetlands Foundation’s restoration efforts! We also had our Alumni Career Panel, where past club members offered their stories and advice about their professions
We were pheasant-ly surprised this weekend on our trip to Killdeer Plains, where we got to view Horned Larks, Sandhill Cranes, and a few Ring-necked Pheasants!
At our Thursday meeting, we had a presentation all about wacky winter ducks, as well as introduced our spring break trip to Florida 🏝️☀️
We had a wonder-fowl kickoff to the semester last week! On Thursday, we spent our first meeting in a board game egg-travaganza, and on Saturday we bundled up and took a trip to Hoover Reservoir and Alum Creek! We’re looking forward to all the spring semester adventures ahead 🤍🐧
We had a blast seeing everyone’s presentations at our final meeting of the semester! Shoutout to everyone who presented, and we can’t wait to see you all next year. Happy holidays, everybirdy! ❄️☃️
Our field trip went abso-coot-ly swimmingly as we explored the Alum Creek State Park Beach! We can guaran-grebe that a November beach day is fowl-ly worth it, especially with the post-trip Bob Evans 🦆🥞
Our merch store is open! If you’re looking to get something to keep you warm this winter, or want to treat somebirdy this holiday season feel free to check it out! ❄️🎁🎉
Our meeting this week was focused on Lights Out Buckeyes, our research initiative with the goal of making urban areas safer for bird migration. Thank you to everyone who has volunteered this semester or reported a bird they found on campus!
