Parkfield/Cholame Valley Bird Walk

February 12, 2025

Register here

 

Join Kevin Enns-Rempel on February 12 for a birding trip to Cholame Valley and Parkfield. We will meet the leader’s home at 6:45am, and depart there by 7am. The address will be provided in you confirmation email. It’s about a 90-minute drive to our destination, so we’ll try to do as much carpooling as possible.

 

From the junction of Highway 41 & Cholame Valley Road, we’ll bird our way slowly up to the little community of Parkfield. Expect to see good numbers of wintering raptors as well as grassland birds. With some luck we’ll also see both Tule Elk and Pronghorns.

 

Bring lunch and water. This will be mostly a stop-and-go driving route, so there won’t be much walking. From Parkfield, participants are free to retrace their steps back to Fresno or take the Parkfield-Coalinga Road back home through Coalinga. We should be done birding by early afternoon, so expect to be back in Fresno by late afternoon.This is always a great trip, so we hope that lots of you can make it.

 

Please reach out to trip leader Kevin Enns-Rempel (559-313-4546 or kevin.enns.rempel@gmail.com) with any questions.
