Outer Point Reyes

Mt. Diablo Bird Alliance

A birding field trip with the Mt. Diablo Audubon Society

Bear Valley Visitor Center

Outer Point ReyesSaturday, June 3, 8:30 AM to 3 PMPoint Reyes is one of the premiere birding locations in Northern California, a great spot to find rarities during migration---like the Prairie Warbler pictured above (image by Beth Branthaver). MDAS tries to visit at least twice a year. On this trip we hope to see northbound migrants as well as resident birds in their spring plumage. We will stop at the lighthouse overlook and spend some time above the fish docks. Bring water and lunch as the area is remote.Rating: Category 1 -- some walking through grass under trees and on paved roadsElevation change: N/ALeader: Matt Tarlach 925 482 6129Meet: Bear Valley Visitor Center, OlemaDirections: From US 101 north of San Rafael, take Lucas Valley Road to Nicasio.

From the Concord/Pleasant Hill area it may be advantageous to cross the top of the Bay on SR 37, exit at Atherton Avenue, turn left and cross US 101 to San Marin Drive. Turn right at the high school and drive about 6 miles to stop sign, turn left on Point Reyes-Petaluma Road for 7 miles to another stop sign. Turn right at the painted bridge, drive 3 miles to SR 1 and turn left into Point Reyes Station. Due to limited parking at several stops on the Outer Point, this field trip is limited to 10 participants. Sharing a car is helpful.
