On Saturday, January 25, Fresno Audubon Society will travel to O’Neill Forebay, west of Los Banos and part of the San Luis reservoir complex. We will meet in front of the Target store at El Paseo Shopping Center, off Herndon near Highway 99, at 7:30am, and go from there. Participants are responsible for arranging carpool rides before the trip.
Our main objective will be the Medeiros Recreation Area west of Los Banos and off Highway 152, on the south shore of the forebay. There, we will look for waterfowl, including scaup, merganzers, Canvasbacks, Ruddy Ducks, grebes, and possibly Loons. This is also a good place for several species of hawks and eagles, including Golden and Bald. We have also seen wintering Swainson’s Hawks here. The riparian areas around the forebay have warblers, towhees, several species of sparrows, and goldfinches, among many other birds. An entrance fee is required for the Madeiros Recreation Area.
If time permits, we will drive to the south side of Highway 152, on the road to Basalt Campground(which is currently closed). In the past, this has been a good site for warblers, shrikes, more raptors, and even Cassin’s Kingbirds. In addition, elk are often seen in this area. Dress warmly and bring lunch.
