Bolinas Ridge: Wild, Remote, and Rarely Birded
Native grasslands are among the most endangered plant communities; just so are their birds. Join leader Josiah Clark in a 7-to-8-mile hike on the remote and wild Bolinas Ridge, up through varied plant communities, rich rolling grasslands, and oak savannah, then down through chaparral and mixed conifer woodlands. We will do our best to rustle up every last species for the list in this rarely-birded area. Take moments to appreciate non-bird biodiversity, as well, while spying native grasses, ephemeral wildflowers, butterflies, and perhaps even a bobcat. Lots of breeding and singing birds. Moderate trail hiking with some elevation gain.
