SUMMARY:California’s Wintering and Breeding Waterfowl
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n  \n\n\n\n\nPhoto Courtesy of Cliff Feldheim \n\n\n\n\nPROGRAM DESCRIPTION \n\n\n\nThe public is invited to join Yolo Bird Alliance for its monthly meeting on November 20\, 2024. Cliff Feldheim\, a Fish and Wildlife Biologist with Ducks Unlimited\, Inc.\, will talk about “California’s Wintering and Breeding Waterfowl” This event is free\, and you do not need to be a member of Yolo Bird Alliance. The meeting is held at the Davis Senior Center at 646 A Street in Davis. The meeting begins at 7:30 p.m. and runs until 8:50 p.m. People are welcome to arrive around 7:00 for casual socializing. \nWe are fortunate to have Cliff speak in November because the period between October and March is prime for viewing migrating waterfowl\, and other migratory birds in nearby wetland habitats\, such as the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area. The Central Valley of California is one of the most important wintering waterfowl areas in North America. California is unique among major North American wintering waterfowl areas in that it is also a particularly important breeding habitat for some species of ducks. From 2014-2021\, GPS cell tower transmitters were attached to 14 species of waterfowl to better understand their movements during winter\, migration\, and breeding. This talk will highlight the results of that work as well as ongoing conservation efforts and challenges facing California’s waterfowl populations. \nSPEAKER BIO \nCliff has worked as a Fish and Wildlife Biologist in the Central Valley for over 30 years. He is an award-winning\, nationally recognized waterfowl scientist. Cliff has published 17 papers on California’s wintering or breeding waterfowl in the last 7 years. Cliff works at Ducks Unlimited on waterfowl and wetland conservation projects including multi-benefit projects such as the creation of floodplain and off channel habitats that benefit salmon and waterfowl while incorporating the needs of other special status species. For ten years\, he served on the Management Board of the Central Valley Joint Venture\, a migratory bird conservation partnership. Cliff sits on the Board for Sacramento Audubon where he also serves as the Conservation Chair and on the Board of the Environmental Council of Sacramento where he also serves on the Habitat 2020 Committee. \nThe Yolo Bird Alliance fosters an appreciation of birds and other wildlife through educational programs and field trips\, brings conservation issues to public awareness\, and acts to preserve Yolo County bird life and habitat.
