Note: The Eddy Geology Center is now called the Discovery Center. 4-29-01 ----- From: "Bruce M. Bowman" To: "Joseph E. Faggan" Date sent: Tue, 18 May 1999 20:00:33 -0500 Subject: Re: Need Help on Geology Center Copies to: birders@umich.edu Priority: normal Joe, I don't recall the message you mention, but I assume the Geology Center is the Eddy Geology Center (Waterloo) in western Washtenaw County. Take I-94 west from Ann Arbor, continuing past the exit to Chelsea. Take Pierce Road north to Bush Road. Go west on Bush Road and you'll soon come to the Geology Center. If you go to the Geology Center at dawn or before, you should take the opportunity next to visit McLure and Loveland Roads. Continue on Bush to McLure. Turn left onto McLure. Bird along the way to Loveland. High in the tall oaks on McLure near Loveland you may find Cerulean Warblers. I've heard of none yet, but I think they should be there now. I believe I'm right that if you do not have an annual permit, you must pay a daily fee to visit the Geology Center if you want to drive your car in. On the otherhand, you can park alongside the road and walk in. It's 0.8 miles to the visitor's center and feeders. Allow yourself some time to look at the interesting rocks at the Geology Center.
