All ages and abilities welcome! Join Chuck Aid for our Third-Saturday Bird Walk on July 18, from 6:30 AM to 1:30 PM.  For this walk we will be driving south to Wigwam Creek, just west of Deckers. The day will be spent driving to a variety of locations within the area decimated by the Hayman Fire in 2002.  There are portions of the area that the fire actually jumped creating island habitats, and shrubs and grasses are making a comeback.  It will be a hundred years before there will be cone-bearing trees again in this area, but the burned snags provide good habitat for some birds, specifically Red-headed and Lewis’s Woodpeckers.

Bring water, a snack, lunch, and rain gear. Meet at the Evergreen Library at 6:30 AM.

These walks are for Evergreen Audubon members and their guests. Non-members won’t be turned away but will be encouraged to join Evergreen Audubon.  You must register here to attend this event.  If you are registering for more than one person, please enter each person separately.  This event is filled when we have eight registrants.

Thanks!
Chuck Aid, Director of Bird Monitoring
