Trip Leader(s): Nilesh Shah & Troy Bynum Join Wyncote Audubon Society at Houston Meadow in Wissahickon Valley Park. This 48-acre forest and meadow habitat was created as part of Philadelphia Parks & Recreation’s Meadow Creation Initiative (2001-2013). The meadow was seeded with native warm-season grasses and wildflowers, while nesting boxes for bluebirds and kestrels were installed to further enhance the wildlife habitat. Attendees will meet at Houston Playground.

With over 180 species reported on eBird, we’re bound to find something special. Attendees will meet at the parking lot before walking down to the preserve.
