Midweek Walkabout Results

Wednesday, Feburary 11, 1998
On a rare sunny day in this El Niño year, 11 people met leader Betty Burridge at Howarth Park for an easy walk and a fine day of birding. Two Merlins perched in eucalyptus at the parking lot, Oak Titmice were already setting up housekeeping along the trail to Spring Lake, and an Osprey surveyed Lake Ralphine from a snag. In all, 51 species were seen.

Thursday, February 19, 1998
This Walkabout was cancelled because Grizzley Island was closed due to flooding.

Wednesday, February 25, 1998
The weather provided a good start to the Walkabout at Pt. Reyes, but the California drizzle cut the day in half. Twelve good people managed 38 species before the deluge. Highlights were a perched Peregrine Falcon and a passel of Common Snipe at Olema marsh.

Thursday, March 5, 1998
Undaunted by the rain, 21 birders met at the Bodega Harbor Rail Ponds. The walk ended at 10:30 because of the rain. A total of 68 species were observed, including three species of Loons (in Bodega Harbor and offshore at Bodega Head) and Pigeon Guillemots (offshore at Bodega Head).
