Come join Christmas Bird Count coordinator and expert birder Steve Hampton for our annual bird identification workshop and preparation for the Putah Creek Christmas Bird Count to be held December 17, 2017. The evening will be fun, as well as educational!
Steve will go over identification of bird species we expect to see on the count and you can sign up to join one of the ten count groups. We will also be holding our annual fundraising drawing for various nifty bird-related prizes. This year’s grand prize is a stunning framed photograph of Long-billed Dowitchers taken at the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area by Yolo Audubon member Beth Savidge!
Tickets for the drawing will be available at the December 6th meeting, but members who donate through December 3rd will be entered automatically. Join or renew at $10 for 5 tickets, or receive 10 tickets with your donation of $20 or more. You may donate through our new website or by sending a check to Yolo Audubon Society, P.O. Box 886, Davis, CA 95617. If you have already donated this fall, thank you! You will be entered in the drawing as well.
