SUMMARY:Cosumnes River Preserve
DESCRIPTION:Snowy Egret; © Kelli O’Neill\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Cosumnes River Preserve has an array of important valley floor bird habitats including wetlands\, floodplains\, agricultural land\, and rare valley oak riparian. Birding at the interface of these habitats provides a unique opportunity to view a diverse list of species with relative ease. We will follow the flat and well-maintained walking trails through these habitats to view woodpeckers\, raptors\, wetland birds\, wintering sparrows\, ducks\, geese\, and shorebirds. We will also bird the agricultural fields along Desmond Road which is renowned for Sandhill Cranes. \n\n\n\nExpect two to three hours of walking in the preserve plus standing for shorebird viewing. This trip welcomes all levels of birding experience\, especially beginners. Please bring binoculars\, plenty of fluids\, and dress in layers for cooler temperatures expected at this time of year\, especially in the morning. We expect to finish in the early afternoon. We will not have a planned lunch break\, but if you want to enjoy your lunch at the preserve\, there are picnic tables at the visitor center good birding-while-eating opportunities. Bathrooms available at the visitor center. \n\n\n\nWe will depart at 7:00am from the Park & Ride behind Ikeda’s in Davis. Please arrive beforehand and carpool when possible. Heavy rain cancels the trip. \n\n\n\nTrip Leader: Ryan Janke (rhjanke29@gmail.com)

SUMMARY:City of Davis South Fork Preserve - An Ecological Treasure and Conservation Success
DESCRIPTION:South Davis Preserve; ©Marc Hoshovsky\n\n\n\nThe Yolo Audubon Society invites the public to join its November program meeting on November 16 at 7:00 pm. This hour and a half event will feature Davis’s own Marc Hoshovsky speaking on the history of the South Fork Preserve\, located along Putah Creek a few miles southeast of downtown Davis. The Preserve is a publicly accessible City of Davis open space area. This 192-acre preserve is one of the best examples of riparian and floodplain forest along Putah Creek. It is a special place because over 95% of California’s riparian habitat has been converted to farm and urban lands since the mid-1800s. \n\n\n\nMarc will illustrate the beauty of this Preserve and describe some of its ecological and hydrological features. His talk will cover the history of the Preserve and lower Putah Creek\, from pre-settlement conditions\, to early ranching efforts\, to 20th century struggles to control flooding and divert water and to the substantially restored condition allowing the return of salmon (after a 70-year absence) and\, a thriving riparian forest and oak woodland now popularly enjoyed by both wildlife and people. \n\n\n\nThis event is free\, and you do not need to be a member of Yolo Audubon. If you would like to join click here. If you only want to receive the monthly newsletter\, click here. \n\n\n\nAbout SpeakerMarc is a local naturalist who has volunteered for Putah Creek Council and the City of Davis’ open space program for many years. He retired from the State of California\, after working on endangered species conservation for almost 30 years\, which now allows him to pursue his other long-term interest in geology. In 2020\, he co-authored the local guidebook “Exploring the Berryessa Region: A Geology\, Nature\, and History Tour”. \n\n\n\nDETAILS ON JOINING THIS ZOOM MEETING \n\n\n\nYou must register (no cost) in advance for this meeting.  \n\n\n\n\nRegister for Program on Zoom\n\n\n\n\nAn account with Zoom is NOT necessary to join a meeting. Zoom limits the number of participants to 100. After registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
