Go Birding!

Overview

Sponsored by Friends of Mt. Tam in Partnership with California State Parks

Hi Birders

This bird walk will be slow enough for us to see the birds which make themselves available to us.

With fall migration over we’ll be looking for wintering migrants such as the Varied Thrush, Hermit Thrush, and Townsend’s Solitaire.

During early October Warbler’s may be possible, such as Orange Crown, Townsend’s, and Hermit Warblers.

Late September towards early October can bring interesting raptors.

Mount Tam State Park is on the winter migration path for many species of raptors, we’ll keep our eye on the sky also.

Of course, we keep listening for Pileated Woodpeckers, Cedar Waxwings, Purple Finches, and Red-Crossbills too.

Meet in the Rock Spring Parking Area by 7:30 AM, we’ll start birding at 8 AM.

Dress in layers, your scope is optional, please no walking sticks and only the trip leader can use digital calling.

The trip will use established paths and some roadside walking too.
