SUMMARY:Bolinas Lagoon
DESCRIPTION:Here’s a chance to see some shorebirds as they migrate south after breeding. During the fall\, some birds like Elegant Tern and Heermann’s Gull take advantage of the west coast of California to feed their summer-hatched generation. We’ll be observing this on our tour around Bolinas Lagoon. Other species we may see are shorebirds: Whimbrel\, Long-billed Curlew\, Sanderlings\, and sandpipers along the beach. Offshore\, we’ll be looking for south-migrating species such as Common\, Pacific and Red-Throated Loons. \nMeet at 7:00 a.m. at the Marketplace Shopping Center\, near Big 5 Sporting Goods in Davis. (West Covell & Highway 113; map below) \nBring binoculars\, spotting scope if you have one\, snacks\, lunch and beverages. If you plan on driving\, please RSVP to the trip leaders. \nThis is a middle-of-week\, all-day birding trip. We hope you can join us. \nCo-leader contacts:\nSami LaRocca [530-908-0288; sami182@wavecable.com]\nJohn Mott-Smith [530-400-7622; johnmottsmith@comcast.net]

SUMMARY:The Big Chase
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for our annual Big Chase field trip.  Fall migration should be in full swing and there should be many shorebirds\, raptors and passerines to see. \nThe locations which we visit and the rare birds that we try to see are dependent on what has been reported on the Northern California RBA and local listservs. \nWe will meet at 6:00 AM in the Park and Ride lot off of Mace Boulevard (northeast of Highway 80 and just down from Ikeda’s Market) in Davis. Bring binoculars\, lunch and plenty of liquids and dress in layers.  Please be prepared for a full day in the field. \nContact your leader\, Kevin Guse\, at 916-514-0685 for more details. \nYolo Audubon Society field trips are free and open to the public. Some trips may be limited by number of participants\, if stated in the description. Car-pooling is encouraged\, but all rides are private arrangements between driver and riders.  \nHeavy rain or high winds may cancel any trip.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Nature Journaling
DESCRIPTION:Nature Journaling has increased in popularity recently. Learn to augment your field trip notes with sketches and words that lend a personal touch to your observations in the field. Certified California Naturalist Alison Kent will review different styles\, media\, tools and will have some of these available for you to try out while she covers some of the basics of sketching in nature. No experience necessary. While birds will be the prime focus\, anything in nature is worthy of attention in a nature journal! \nMeet at the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area Headquarters (45211 Co Rd 32B\, Davis) at 8:30 am on Saturday\, October 12—the trip will run until 12:30 pm. The outing will focus on the demonstration wetlands where there will be picnic tables available. Bring binoculars\, spotting scope and a hand lens if you have one\, paper or a notebook\, and a pencil or pen. Watercolors or colored pencils are handy but not essential. \nLimited to 25! Please contact Alison Kent to reserve your spot. Strictly first come\, first served.

SUMMARY:Sparrow Bingo Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Fall migration is largely over and the winter birds are settling in. Join Steve Hampton and Michael Perrone for a local jaunt around Yolo County. The challenge: to find as many species of sparrows as possible. As believers in the rule that when you search for one bird\, you discover another\, expect anything on this trip– the sparrows are just the excuse to get out and about. This will also be a good trip to practice birding by ear. Route to be determined as conditions warrant. \nWe’ll meet at 7:30 a.m. at the Marketplace Shopping Center (near Big 5 Sporting Goods\, 1301 W. Covell\, just east of Hwy 113). Bring binoculars\, scopes\, cameras\, snacks\, lunch\, and beverages. High winds or a significant rainstorm cancel this trip. We will return by 3:00pm. \nContact Michael Perrone at michaelperrone10@yahoo.com for more info. \nLast year’s participants  enjoyed the novelty of checking off sparrows on a bingo card! \nYolo Audubon Society field trips are free and open to the public. Some trips may be limited by number of participants\, if stated in the description. Car-pooling is encouraged\, but all rides are private arrangements between driver and riders. Heavy rain or high winds may cancel any trip.
