Event
Tomales Bay Breeding Birds
Late April is the best time of the year to visit Tomales Bay State Park's amazing diversity of habitats. Participants will discover a dozen or more songbirds by sight and song, with the adjoining majestic bay and its pristine shorelines also likely to yield an abundance of shorebird and waterfowl sightings. Migrant species are also likely discoveries. Good bets include seeing close views of nesting Wilson's and orange-crowned warbler, Bewick's wren and Anna's hummingbird, while loons and grebes in gorgeous breeding plumage may potentially be spotted on the Tomales Bay. You'll receive handouts related to spring nesting and migration in Marin County, including one entitled 'Top Ten Tips To Improving Your Birding By Ear' as we discuss the ecology of bird songs and their functions. Easy trail walking.
