SUMMARY:Field Trip- Lake Apopka Wildlife Drive
DESCRIPTION:Lake Apopka Wildlife Drive (Orange County). \nAlways a great opportunity to get a close-up look at many species we usually only see at a distance. \nThis 12-mile drive through the area will give us lots of opportunities to see a very wide range of birds. Hopefully it will already be hosting thousands of ducks and shorebirds. \nIt is also a reliable place to see Fulvous Whistling-ducks – a species we don’t see in this part of the state. \nContact president@pascoaudubon.com

SUMMARY:Nature-Based Solutions at MacDill Air Force Base
DESCRIPTION:MacDill Air Force Base (AFB) faces challenges of shoreline erosion and flooding\, as experienced in both high tide flooding as well as during more major storms such as the hurricanes of 2024. The natural configuration of the AFB provides significant opportunities to employ nature-based solutions (NBS)\, actions inspired by nature that rely on incorporation of natural features and processes\, to help improve base readiness. \nThe Water Institute is facilitating a Structured Decision Making (SDM) process that will engage decision makers and the public on NBS alternatives being considered for implementation at the base. This process will result in an engineering design of the chosen alternative. \nThe first workshop of the process will provide an overview of the project and discuss the NBS alternatives being considered. This virtual workshop is open to the public and will be held on July 22nd from 3:30 to 5:00 pm EDT via webinar. You may register at https://tinyurl.com/macdill-workshop1. We will be recording the webinar for those unable to attend\, as well as using it as a distribution list for future updates\, so please register if interested in future updates regardless of your availability to attend at that time. \nFor more information on the project or upcoming workshops\, contact macdill_feedback@thewaterinstitute.org.
