Registration is NOT required for this field trip.

Field Trip Leader: Richard Barbieri

The grasslands and farmlands surrounding Lincoln provide some of the best winter birding in the Sacramento Valley. Richard will search the back roads of Placer County for raptors, shorebirds, ducks, swans, and sparrows, plus specialty species such as Tri-colored Blackbird and Lewis’s Woodpecker. It is not unusual to find 90 species on this trip.

We will bird into the afternoon, so bring lunch and liquids as well as scopes and FRS radios if you have them. Be prepared for a fast-paced trip!

Meeting Location: We will meet at the Park & Ride by Brookfield’s Restaurant, 1817 Taylor Road in Roseville. 

Directions: From Sacramento on I-80, take the Eureka Road offramp (Exit 105A) and continue straight through the signal light at Eureka Road and you’ll be on Taylor Road. Turn left just past the Shell Station and park on the right in the Park & Ride.

COVID 19 Precautions: All participants, including field trip leaders, must be vaccinated.
