Yolo Farmlands
Field Trip
We’re going to sample some of the rural roads of Yolo County and see what a rich bird heritage we have with our open spaces and agricultural practices. We’ll see the effects of different crops and management practices, and the effects of “edges” on species richness.
No need for a super-early start, so let’s meet at the Park and Ride near Mace and I-80 at 7:45 AM. Bring your binoculars, clothing in layers for cold-to-warm transition, and snacky food and water as needed. We’ll be back by mid-afternoon so you can weed your garden and make the yard attractive to your own set of birds.
For any questions call leader, Mary Schiedt, 530-400-7094.
NOTE FROM FIELDTRIP CHAIRPERSON: Mary will be looking for sign of breeding birds to add to our Breeding Bird Atlas project, now in its 3rd year.
