Camp Edison, Shaver Lake Walk
Registration is required for this event.
Registration closes 24 hours before the event or when full.
On Saturday, June 1, Fresno Audubon will head to Camp Edison at Shaver Lake for a look at mountain birds. Camp Edison is always a good place to see mountain species, including White-headed Woodpecker, Gold-crowned Kinglet, Fox Sparrow, Western Tanager, Yellow and MacGillivray’s Warblers, Black-headed Grosbeak, and many others. With luck, we may also see Pileated Woodpeckers, and hear, if not see, Mountain Quail. Shaver Lake, as well, has its resident Ospreys and Bald Eagles, among several other raptors.
We will meet in the parking lot in front of the Target at Riverpark at 7:30AM and go from there. Camp Edison does require a fee to enter, so carpooling is recommended. Participants are responsible for making carpool arrangements beforehand.
Bring warm clothing(even in June, the mountains can still be cold), optics, lunch, and snacks.
For more information or questions, contact trip leader Larry Parmeter at lanpar362@gmail.com or at 559-288-3456.

At this time, we have around twelve or thirteen individuals who lead field trips, sharing their passion and expertise, providing wonderful birding experiences for our members and the general public. But, we are in need of more trip leaders and/or individuals who would like to share their knowledge of favorite birding locations.
