Leader: Maggie Clark and Rich Nicholson, fieldtips AT ohloneaudubon.org

 

Join us for an exploration into the audible world of the freshwater marsh.  We will listen for harder-to-see birds like Virginia Rail, Sora, Common Yellowthroat, and American Bittern, and review songs of old friends like Marsh Wren, Song Sparrow, and Mallard.  One familiar sound is the buzz of the mosquito - bring your insect repellent as well as sunblock.  Check the weather; we will not go if it’s raining heavily.  From I-880 in Fremont, take CA-84 (Decoto Road) west towards the Dumbarton Bridge.  Exit at Paseo Padre Parkway/Thornton Avenue and turn right to reach the park.  Turn left at Patterson Ranch Rd. and meet at the visitor center parking lot. $5 parking fee unless you have an EB Parks pass.
