Microhabitats of Lucas Valley
Carpool from Dance Palace 8:00 A.M.
Point Reyes Station, CA
The beautiful drive from Point Reyes Station to the open slopes of Big Rock Ridge reveals multiple habitats from the open grasslands surrounding Nicasio Reservoir to deep redwood forest leading into the extraordinary bay-oak woodland of Loma Alta. Beyond Loma Alta lies one of Marin County's favorite birding destinations, Las Gallinas Ponds. This trip will focus on species typical of each habitat with a particular emphasis on birding by ear, breeding behaviors, and the specialty birds of Big Rock Ridge. Mostly gentle walking with moderate uphill walking at Big Rock Ridge.
