The Fresno Audubon Society board meets monthly on the last Sunday of each month from August through May. All are welcome to attend.
This often overlooked little jewel of a birding site has a large open lake, riparian areas along the Kings River, and oak woodlands. It’s a great place for fall migrants, woodpeckers, nuthatches, sparrows, finches, including Lawrence’s Goldfinch, towhees, and raptors. Early wintering waterfwol may be on the lake,along with possible Common Loons. We’ll meet at 7:45am aat the Walmart parking lot at Ashlan and Blackstone for an 8am departure.
Checklist: binoculars, scope, field guide, snacks, lunch, water, sunscreen, hat, radios

We will go visit Cricket Hollow Park along the Kings River in Reedley. This is a very productive area that promises many riparian birds, as well as raptors, towhees, and finches. There is also a trail that goes from the park along the river near Reedley College that is also rich in birds. For FAS it’s a new and somewhat different site that should be exciting and engaging. Meet at 7:45am at the WalMart parking lot.
Checklist: binoculars, scope, field guide, snacks, lunch, water, sunscreen, hat, radios

Sandhill Cranes by Cecelia Sheeter
Join trip leader Judy Johnson for a different kind of Wednesday Walk. We will visit Merced National Wildlife Refuge late in the day, touring the refuge when the light is best for photography, and then stay for the sandhill crane fly-in. Expect to see thousands of geese and cranes, several species of ducks, tundra swans, pelicans, and numerous raptors. The sandhill crane fly-in at dusk is a magical experience as you watch flight after flight of cooing cranes come to roost. We will meet in front of the River Park Target at 11:45 am for a 12:00 pm departure. We expect to leave the refuge no later than 7:00 pm.
Registration: Please register here.
Checklist: binoculars, spotting scopes, cameras, jackets, snacks, water, insect repellent, and radios.
