Upcoming Field Trips
Here is a list of field trips that will take us through the end of the year and into January 2025:
Saturday, November 9. Westport Marina and Bottle Beach
Meet at Southside Swansons in parking lot near coffee shop at 8:30 am. Again, tide is not very cooperative, but by visiting Marina first we give the tide a chance to move in a bit for Bottle Beach.
Sunday, Nov 17 - Ocean Shores
Those from Aberdeen/Hoquiam and points east meet at the (now vacant) Flooring Company parking lot in Hoquiam on the corner of 6th and Simpson. We can meet the Ocean Shores birders in the parking lot just before the Lighthouse Suites on the first beach access road (St Route 115/Damon Rd). If we meet in Hoquiam at 8:30 am, we should arrive in Ocean Shores at 9:00 am.
Saturday, December 14 - Lake Sylvia, Montesano
Meet up at Tractor Supply Parking lot closest to Hwy 12 at 8:30 am. We can meet any who live east of town at the Monster Mocha in Montesano. This little coffee drive thru is just south of the Hwy 12 exit where the exit connects with Main Street. We should be arriving there around 8:45 am. Lake Sylvia State Park has just recently received a bit of a make over so besides looking for birds, it will be interesting to see the new face the park is showing.
Saturday, January 4, has been appointed for the Christmas Bird Count. Contact Dianna Moore at <[email protected]> to let her know if you are interested in participating.
Wednesday, January 15, - Bishop Athletic Complex/Chehalis River Trailway
Meet at Southside Swanson parking area closest to coffee stand drive thru at 8:30am. Anybody coming from Westport/Grayland can meet us at the Bishop Complex. This is an almost new trail to me. It will be mostly walking and stopping and looking. It will be interesting to see if any birds show up.
Wishing everyone happiness during the upcoming holiday season. I will be sending reminders for upcoming trips through my Birders email list.
Just a reminder, if you would like to be included on my Birders email list, be sure to contact me so you can get the latest reminders of what's happening in the birder's world.
