Spring Migration at Point Reyes

Point Reyes National Seashore Association

Bear Valley Picnic Area, Point Reyes Station, CA

Friday, May 1 from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm

Tickets: $24-$95

Spring is an ideal time to enjoy a variety of birds in terrestrial and aquatic habitats. We'll practice identification by sight and sound.

Almost all of the migratory nesting birds have returned to the area while some of the wintering birds still linger. This is a great time of year for birding in Point Reyes.

This class will explore Bear Valley, the Giacomini Wetlands, and some coastal habitats to observe them. Identification of raptors, flycatchers, warblers, woodpeckers, shorebirds and other waterbirds by sight and sounds will be a major focus.
