SUMMARY:Field Trip At Abita Creek Flatwoods Preserve
DESCRIPTION:Take a morning walk through one of southeast Louisiana’s most unique ecosystems: the longleaf pine flatwoods savanna!

Guides are Will DeBravelles\, director of land protection for the Nature Conservancy in Louisiana\, and Wendy Rihner\, native plants grower\, local birder\, and Orleans Audubon Environmental Education Chair. They’ll talk native plants (including carnivorous ones) and habitat management and explain what makes this ecosystem so special (fingers crossed that we see a red-cockaded woodpecker!).

No sign-up\, just show up at the main parking lot off LA-435. Parking is very very limited so carpooling is encouraged; be aware that you may need to find additional parking across the street from the preserve. A map and driving directions are at the preserve link above or use Google maps coordinates 30°31’02.3″N 89°58’05.2″W. Free\, but please consider donating to the Nature Conservancy to support their work.
