Sunday, January 24, 2021 3:00 PM Event The meeting location for this trip will depend on weather conditions. Kath will contact you prior to the walk to give you the location. Join us for a field trip around the Truckee River and the ponds at Idlewild Park. This walk will be mostly flat along paved paths and may end up being as far as three miles, depending on the birding. Expect to see tons of Canada geese and mallards as well as other water lovers, such as mergansers (common and hooded), and maybe even a pair of goldeneyes or wood ducks. Along the shores there will also be plenty of birds to identify. Event Leader Name Kath Giel nevadakath@gmail.com Check the Idlewild eBird hotspot https://ebird.org/hotspot/L345149.

Saturday, November 14, 2020 3:00 PM Event Meet at Swan Lake Nature Study Area parking lot. Swan Lake is a birding hot spot that is often overlooked by local birders. Although the boardwalk is in disrepair and unusable, there are plenty of opportunities to look for shorebirds and waterfowl from other areas. Bring your binoculars and a spotting scope if you have one and we will see what we can see. In early November there have been Tundra Swans, American White Pelicans, and numerous other waterfowl. This could be good or it could be a bust. Join me to find out. Event Leader Name David Jickling david@nevadaaudubon.org
