Hikers will begin their adventure walking through a wooded area of arroyo willows and wax myrtle, where numerous species of songbirds make their homes, as they head to a bridge that crosses the lake. \nLate summer/early fall is a great time to observe birds at Oso Flaco. Our winter migrants will be arriving and many of our summer breeders should still be here. We can expect to see Pied Billed Grebe, Chestnut Backed Chickadee, Long Billed Curlew, Snowy Plovers, Sora, American White Pelica, and Black Crowned Night Heron. \nBe ready to make the 3 mile, round trip hike. Watch the weather and dress appropriately. See you there! \n \nImages provided by Marjorie Lane-Magnogna and John Deacon END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
