Sandhill Cranes & Winter Birds Field Class
South Sound Nature School's Ridgefield Field Class will be Saturday, February 4th, 9:00-1:00. Meet leader Kevin O'Malley and Barbara Petersen at the refuge on Saturday morning. Experiencing birds in different habitat is an important tool to becoming a better birder.
Fresh Water and Saltwater Birds
Lake Fenwick, Washington 25828 Lake Fenwick Rd, Kent, Washington, United StatesJoin us for a morning walk around Lake Fenwick to look for wintering waterfowl and woodland birds. We’ll practice spotting, listening for, and identifying the species we encounter. Then we’ll move on to Redondo Beach to scan Poverty Bay for saltwater birds. We may walk part of the boardwalk there, and check the edges of nearby Wooten Park if time allows.
Black River Riparian Forest Field Trip
Black River Riparian Forest 600 Oakesdale Ave. SW, Renton, Washington, United StatesNesting has begun at Renton's Black River Riparian Forest. I visited this past weekend and we saw about 30 herons. Some were even standing in nests and one was pointing his/her beak skyward to let the others know that they were looking for a mate.
Hawks & Raptors Field Class
Migrating Raptors are fascinating to observe. Please join Kevin O'Malley and Barbara Petersen for a winter raptor viewing adventure.
