LYNCH CANYON
Join raptor expert Larry Broderick for a brief presentation on birds of prey, followed by a 3-4 mile moderate hike at Solano Land Trust's Lynch Canyon. Recent sightings include golden eagles, red-tailed hawks, red-shouldered hawks, coopers hawks, sharp-shinned hawks, northern herriers, white-tailed kites, kestrels, prairie falcons, barn owls, and tons of other birds!
This is a good opportunity to visit the Canyon, as it is closed to the public until Saturday, Feb. 12, 2011.
Broderick brings 25 years of experience studying, researching, rescuing and rehabilitating raptors. He loves to share his insights in an entertaining way for both beginning and experienced birders. His goal is to get people into nature to see these magnificent birds of prey going about their daily business. With a friendly and informative atmosphere, he shares the excitement these birds bring, and an understanding of some of their intriguing behaviors.
Bring water, a snack or bag lunch, binoculars, and waterproof boots. Come prepared for variable weather (bring layered clothes and protection from sun, wind, fog, and rain). A donation is suggested but not required. Heavy or constant rain cancels -- call Larry's cell phone at 707-975-7047 if the weather is uncertain.
