WE01 Dawn Chorus at Arcata Marsh 1 | 2020 | $10
Time - 6:30 am - 8:30 am
Trip Leader(s): Chet Ogan
This event will meet at the Arcata Community Center, out front of the building. Festival headquarters will not be set up there quite yet so just look for others with binoculars and spotting scopes.
The Arcata Marsh & Wildlife Sanctuary is the jewel in the crown of Humboldt birding. This restored estuary habitat supports ducks, herons, sparrows, chickadees, massive flocks of shorebirds, and many more species. This pre-breakfast trip is planned to catch the dawn chorus in full swing at the Arcata Marsh & Wildlife Sanctuary. Birds are on the move at this time, so there will be plenty of birding action. The willows along the trails house the songbirds and the reed beds support chattering Marsh Wrens. This trip is for everyone and will provide an introduction to the variety of birds at the marsh. Terrain is mostly flat on maintained trails. We will not stop for food and there will be opportunity to use a spotting scope if you have one. There is a port-a-potty available at Klopp Lake parking lot. This event is also offered Thursday and Friday, (see events #TH09 & # FR20.)
The Arcata Marsh & Wildlife Sanctuary has accessible trails.
