Field Trip: Golden Gate Park and Sutro Baths - TRIP CANCELLED

This Trip is CANCELLED.

Field Trip Leader: Dan Williams

Join Dan for a full day birding the City by the Bay! We will start at Golden Gate Park’s Stow Lake and bird the Log Cabin Trail to the Japanese Tea Garden. Birds we will hope to see include Allen’s Hummingbird, Chestnut-backed Chickadee, Pacific Wren, and Townsend’s Warbler, as well as all manner of waterfowl and gulls on the lake. After a picnic lunch in the park, we will head on to Lands End and bird the Sutro Baths area where we will hope to spot rock-loving shorebirds such as Black Oystercatcher, Black and Ruddy Turnstone, and Surfbirds as well as any sea ducks, loons, and auks we can find. If time allows (and/or rare bird reports indicate) there will be an optional afternoon stop at the Presidio/Crissy Field before heading over the Golden Gate Bridge for home. Bring a lunch and plenty of water and expect a full day of birding!
