With COVID-19 restrictions still in place, in-person field trips are still on the back-burner for the foreseeable future. Well, FAS is here to bring you the next best thing: live virtual field trips! Join us as we take you to some local birding hotspots to show you some of the birds on site and teach you ways to identify them. This is the perfect opportunity to see a diverse array of local birds and interact with the hosts in real time, all from the safety of your home!
The next virtual field trip is scheduled for Saturday, March 20 at 9:00 am. We will be visiting the River Center, which is a great spot for herons, egrets, ducks, sparrows, raptors and many others! You definitely do not want to miss this!

You can see an example of what you will experience below, where Rachel will give you tips on identifying Least Sandpiper.

Tricolored Blackbirds in the Foothills ⏤ Virtual General Meeting

Dan Airola

The talk will provide background on the unique population ecology of California’s near-endemic Tricolored Blackbird and the causes for its historic decline.  Dan will review the importance of the the breeding population in the foothills based on surveys conducted over 2014-2020.  Study results describing nesting and foraging habitats will be presented.  Dan will also present the results of an analysis of the conservation status of the foothill population, which will describe habitat losses due to grassland conversion to orchards and vineyards and development, and the levels of habitat protection currently afforded under existing conservation management, county zoning, and the several Habitat Conservation Plans.

Migratory Bird Day Field Trip to Lost Lake Park @ Lost Lake Recreation Area, Audubon Nature Trail
May 8 @ 7:00 am – 9:00 am

May 8th is World Migratory Bird Day as well as the Global Big Day. To celebrate, Fresno Audubon will hold our first in-person field trip in over a year at Lost Lake Recreation Area. The state and county orders allow “Recreational social and community classes,” and we believe a field trip fits this category. We are currently in the red tier where the maximum allowed group size is 50. Everyone must do their own risk assessment before participating, but we believe risks to be very low if we follow state and CDC guidelines. All attendees must sign our liability waiver, and registration is required. You can register here. By registering you will be agreeing to our liability waiver and will not need to sign again onsite.

We will operate the event according to state and county guidelines: Masks must be warn in public except when outdoors and maintaining at least 6 feet of social distance from others not in their household. You must have a face covering with you at all times and must put it on if you are within 6 feet of others who are not in your household.

We don’t recommend sharing scopes and won’t be sponsoring a group meal at the end of the trip.

This will be a 2-hour trip to comply with county requirements. We will meet at the Audubon Nature Trailhead at the south end of the park. Please join us for a wonderful morning of group birding!
