SUMMARY:Bahia\, Rush Creek & Rowland Avenue Wetlands
DESCRIPTION:Please meet at the foot (east end) of Bahia Drive in Novato where Marin Audubon has completed a large restoration project. Shorebirds\, ducks\, herons\, swallows\, and rails will be reaping the benefits here for years to come. After viewing the birds and the restoration area\, we intend to walk the trail along the edge of the mixed oak woodland. We then plan to drive around to the end of Topaz Street to view the Horseshoe Pond where some diving ducks\, including a few Barrow’s Goldeneyes\, like to winter. During the day we may practice some bird counting to help prepare for the upcoming Christmas Bird Count season. After lunch we will take a look at two nearby areas-Rush Creek and the Rowland Avenue wetlands. Heavy rain cancels.\nDirections: From Hwy 101 in North Novato\, take the Atherton Avenue exit east about 0.9 miles\, then turn left onto Bugeia Lane\, which becomes Bahia Drive. Follow it to the end where there is street parking. No restrooms available here.

SUMMARY:Pacheco Pond
DESCRIPTION:We’ll repeat a trip to Pacheco Pond for our first Thursday of the month walk in December. It’s hard to compete with Las Gallinas\, but Pacheco Pond has provided a reasonable substitute location for our usual Las Gallinas walk. The area provides habitat for a variety of ducks\, Black-crowned Night-Heron\, Common Gallinule\, Sora\, and Virginia Rail. The adjacent non-native eucalyptus provides additional habitat for both songbirds\, egrets\, and a number of raptors including Peregrine Falcon. \nThank you\, Bob and Sande\, for continuing as our competent and friendly guides on this popular monthly walk. We welcome bird enthusiasts of all levels and help each other to find and identify the birds. The area around Pacheco Pond is mostly flat\, but we will be walking across some rocky\, uneven surfaces. Dress in layers and bring binoculars\, scopes\, and water. Heavy rain cancels. \nDirections: Take the Bel Marin Keys Blvd exit from Highway 101. Travel east on Bel Marin Keys Blvd for 2 miles passing through a commercial/industrial section until arriving at a small parking area on the right\, which faces the pond. We will meet in the parking area and walk to the trail a short distance up the road.

SUMMARY:Schollenberger Park
DESCRIPTION:Head to Petaluma to explore Shollenberger Park\, one of the major hotspots in the North Bay. We’ll walk the ~ 3-mile loop leisurely\, looking for waterfowl\, rails\, shorebirds\, waders\, raptors\, sparrows\, and other wintering and year-round passerines. Perhaps we’ll see a White-tailed Kite or a Northern Harrier. Maybe a cooperative Virginia Rail or Marsh Wren will give us a look-or at the very least-a listen! Say’s Phoebes and Lincoln Sparrows might be back in town as well! Let’s go find out!\nLearn about the common birds\, animals\, and plants of Shollenberger in the newly published Petaluma Wetlands Field Guide: https://petalumawetlands.org/field-guide/ \nIf you’re a Shollenberger first-timer\, check out Miles & Teresa’s recap of an August 2019 bird survey here: https://imbirdingrightnow.com/2019/08/22/pwa-bird-survey-shollenberger-8-20-19/ \nBathrooms at parking lot. Heavy rain cancels. Bring binoculars\, layers\, sunscreen\, water\, lunch\, or snacks. \nDirections:. From Marin\, head north on Hwy 101\, take Exit 472B for CA-116 East (Lakeville Hwy).

SUMMARY:Albatross of Kauai\, Their style and Story
DESCRIPTION:Albatross have likely nested in the Hawaiian Islands for millions of years\, but disappeared with the arrival of humans. About 40 years ago\, individual birds began returning to Kauai\, and the population has gradually grown since then. Now\, as their mother ship at Midway Atoll in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands becomes more and more treacherous\, Kauai may become the birds’ Noah’s Ark. \nHob Osterlund\, MSN\, APRN\, is an award-winning writer\, photographer and conservationist living on the island of Kaua’i. Her work has appeared in The New York Times\, National Geographic Explorer\, Audubon\, National Wildlife\, Nature Conservancy\, Hana Hou (Hawaiian Airlines)\, Ms. Magazine and more. \nShe is the founder of the Kauai Albatross Network and has served as a habitat liaison for a number of private landowners for several years. Her work includes direct services such as systematic monitoring of all Laysan albatross on those properties\, assisting with predator control and serving as a link between private landowners and state and federal wildlife agencies. For five nesting seasons Hob worked as a Kaua’i Coordinator for the Cornell Lab of Ornithology Bird Cam project. As a result\, Laysan albatross live streaming images were played via the “TrossCam” as the chicks grew from hatch to fledge. From 2014-2018 there were 60 million views and 450 million minutes watched by viewers from 190 countries. In 2019 Hob’s primary focus is her new documentary Kalama’s Journey. The film is about an albatross chick adopted by a female pair of birds on Kaua’i\, and about the chick’s role in facing her species’ biggest threat.

SUMMARY:Fall Migration Hotspots
DESCRIPTION:No sleeping in will be possible for those who want to join Derek and Bob on this trip to some of the best-known migrant hotspots in Marin. Our plan for the day will depend on what birds have been seen in the area. Point Reyes has proven to be one of the greatest migrant traps on our continent with more than half of all North American birds (at least 502 species) seen there. \nWe will be looking in the areas of Drakes Beach and the Fish Docks/Chimney Rock. We may also stop to check the fields and trees surrounding some of the ranches in the area as well as the more inland riparian area around the Inverness Tennis Club. Come help us find something rare and unexpected. Fall birders in these areas are rarely disappointed! This time of year\, as Rich Stallcup said\, The Outer Point never gets old. It is never the same. \nWe will meet at Whitehouse Pool and bird that area as participants gather before carpooling to the Outer Point. Dress in layers (plan for wind and fog)\, and bring a hat\, sunscreen\, water\, and lunch. Heavy rain cancels. \nDirections: From Hwy 101 in Larkspur\, take the Sir Francis Drake exit 20.4 miles to Olema. Turn right onto Hwy 1 and go 2 miles. Before the green bridge\, turn left (continuing on Sir Francis Drake Blvd.) and drive 0.7 mile. Look for the White House Pool sign and parking lot on the right.
