SUMMARY:The Ponds at the Las Gallinas Valley Sanitary District (LGVSD) - San Rafael
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, June 5\, 2025\n8:30 AM to 12:00 PM\nBirding with Mark Clark \nAll participants are welcome to join this trip. \nWe welcome bird enthusiasts of all levels\, especially beginning birders\, to join leader Mark Clark on our monthly first Thursday walk around the ponds at Las Gallinas.  On our search we’ll be looking for waterfowl\, waders\, songbirds\, raptors\, rails and swallows. We are likely to spot some interesting species\, so come assist in our search. \nThe packed dirt paths around the ponds are wide\, flat and easy to navigate. Heavy rain cancels. \nDIRECTIONS: From Hwy 101\, exit at Smith Ranch Rd. Drive east on Smith Ranch Rd. toward McInnis Park. Turn left immediately after crossing the railroad tracks and drive about 0.5 mile through the LGVSD gates and into the parking lot at the end of the road. Meet the group by the bridge just past the parking lot. There is a portable restroom in the parking area for public use.

SUMMARY:Big Rock and Las Gallinas Ponds
DESCRIPTION:Birding in Marin\, Season 10\, Trip 6\nSaturday\, June 7\, 2025\n8:30 AM to mid-afternoon\nBirding with Jim White and Bob Battagin \nRegistration required for this trip. Registration opens on May 27 at 8:00 AM \nREGISTER HERE \nTrails at Big Rock\, rather steep\, allow us to view some of the expansive grasslands and forested ravines in Marin. Some of the grassland nesting birds we will be looking for include Lazuli Bunting\, Grasshopper Sparrow\, Horned Lark\, and Ash-throated Flycatcher. We will also have a vast amount of sky visible so swallows\, swifts\, and raptors may appear with a chance for a Golden Eagle. \nAt midday we expect to drive Lucas Valley Road to Las Gallinas\, where we’ll stop to eat our lunch before looking for American and Least Bitterns\, Green Heron\, Cinnamon Teal\, Common Gallinule\, and Great-tailed Grackle. \nDIRECTIONS: From Highway 101 in San Rafael\, exit on Lucas Valley Rd and go west approximately 5.5 miles (look for the big rock). We will be walking approximately 3 miles. Because this area can get quite hot this time of year\, be sure to wear a hat\, use sunscreen and carry plenty of water.
