I see there are guided bird walks at Eagle Creek and Ft. Ben Harrison every Sunday. Since they conflict and I can only do one, any recommendations either way?
And the same question regarding Saturday walks at Cool Creek (north of town) and Brandywine Park (east).
Thanks.

Re: Indianapolis in April or May 2026
56 species total over 8 days (4 of them travel days). 14 first of year.
45 Indiana firsts, mostly from Lake Lemon near Bloomington and from a bird walk at Eagle Creek Park in Indy. 7 West Virginia and 4 Virginia firsts from walking around hotels at the end of the day.
Added first checklists for Ohio and Kentucky. Yeah, Incidentals out the window and at a rest area, but still...
