This site is home to over 170+ species of birds\, many species of insects and mammals\, and up to thousands of visitors per year. Our efforts can aid in the livelihood of these animals and stewardship for the people. We’ll focus on removing invasive bushes and plants around the trailhead so we can plant native shrubs in the future\, as well as fill our seed packets for the public seed library. \nAfterwards\, we open our space to an open stage for those to come and share their voice and appreciation of our earth and community. This can be through poetry\, stories and other types of offerings. This session will start with a brief\, Strawberry Mansion history lesson from our neighborhood and tour leader Judith. \nTime: 1-2:30pm Volunteer Engagement / 2:30-4pm Open Stage \nVolunteer and Open Stage sign up can be found here! https://forms.gle/WEattkr7Q34WwufS8 \nReach out to audubon@discoveryphila.org with any questions.

SUMMARY:Pop-Up Citizen Science Party at Independence National Historical Park
DESCRIPTION:Come have some fun Monday night (April 13) at Independence National Historical Park\, right near the Liberty Bell\, across from Independence Hall. Join Derrick Pitts\, Chief Astronomer at the Franklin Institute\, Darlene Cavalier\, Founder of SciStarter\, and regional amateur astronomers\, for a free nighttime stargazing event 8:00 PM – 10:00 PM\nIt’s a kick off to DarkSky Week and part of #CitizenScienceMonth. \nTelescopes\, astronomers\, and volunteers will be on hand to help you explore the night sky up close. Great date night in one of the most historic places in the country. \nFamily-fun activities\, giveaways\, and America 250 window clings will be distributed. \nTake part in simple activities that support real scientific research\, including measuring sky brightness to track light pollution and listening for migrating birds by identifying their nighttime calls. Scientists use this data to help birds reach their destinations safely and to better understand how light pollution affects people and wildlife. Learn about new bird-safe glass being installed around the Liberty Bell and Visitors Center to prevent bird-window collisions\, thanks to guidance from BirdSafePhilly. \nEvery activity counts toward the goal of 2.50 #MillionActsofScience in celebration of America’s 250th birthday. It is a chance to be part of something meaningful right where it all began. No RSVP needed. Just show up. 🙂 Rain date is April 14. \nPresented by SciStarter which connects millions of people around the world to scientists who need their help.

SUMMARY:Nature at Noon at the Woodlands Cemetery
DESCRIPTION:Take a break from your desk and reconnect with the natural world — right in the middle of your workday. Join us for Nature at Noon\, a new series of accessible lunchtime nature outings in and around Center City Philadelphia. \nNature at Noon is designed to bring joy\, inclusion and curiosity to your lunch hour. These one-hour outdoor gatherings center accessibility\, biodiversity\, safety and connection — with programming that bridges science\, art and community. Inspired by the work of In Color Birding Club\, Feminist Bird Club\, Philly Queer Birders\, PCAS Adaptive Birders and Disability Pride PA’s Outdoors for Everyone series\, Nature at Noon is for everyone — no experience needed\, just curiosity and a desire to step outside. \nFor this one-hour outing\, we will meet at noon at the Woodlands Cemetery just inside the entrance located at 4000 Woodland Ave.\, or you can plug this location into your map (39.948841\, -75.203056). \nRegister here: https://28261.blackbaudhosting.com/28261/Nature-At-Noon-Woodlands-Cemetary-1030 \nAccess Features:\nSurface/Terrain: The site landscape is made up of two miles of paved roads\, as well as brick paths\, and grass.\nPublic Bathroom: One ADA restroom is located at the Northeast corner of the Stable. The door is unmarked\, and there is a black wedge ramp at the entrance.\nThe area is partly shady with ample tree coverage and open canopy areas.\nParking: Parking is available along the paved roads throughout the cemetery and near the Meadow.\nPublic Transportation: The Woodlands is directly across the street from the 40th Street Trolley Portal serving the T2\, T3\, T4\, T5 trolleys and Route 30 bus.\nWeather: If it is actively raining\, we will postpone or cancel the event. Please check our Facebook event listing by 11 a.m. on event day to confirm. \nEveryone is welcome — come as you are! We invite people of all backgrounds and abilities to join us\, including disabled and neurodivergent nature-lovers and their support people. We will move at a pace that honors the needs of the group and invite you to share any access needs in advance so we can make your experience as enjoyable as possible. \nWe’ll use apps like iNaturalist and Merlin Bird ID to help identify the park’s biodiversity\, and we encourage you to download the apps prior to the event\, but it is not required. We will help you to navigate these tools if they are new for you. While we won’t explore every corner of the park or encounter every species\, we will focus on some standout wildlife sure to spark your curiosity and wonder. Free Library birding backpacks and binoculars will be made available to everyone as supplies allow.
