Autumn Shorebirds
August 15 (Thursday) 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. class in Heron Hall
August 17 (Saturday) 7:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. coast field trip (transportation provided)
The southbound shorebird migration begins early and goes late, from July to October, with changes every week. Fall begins with adult birds that sport worn plumage arriving in the Northwest as early as July. Juveniles follow weeks later and increase in numbers and diversity.
Join local author and guide John Rakestraw for an evening class to learn how to identify these long-distance migrants with a follow-up field trip to practice your skills in the field. You can also take the class alone.
