Novato Baylands Native Plant Nursery
Join us for a bilingual team in Point Blue’s 48th Annual Rich Stallcup Bird-A-Thon! We will begin at 8:30 AM on Saturday, October 10 at the Novato Baylands native plant nursery, 737 Aberdeen Rd, Novato, CA. We’ll then walk at a relaxed pace along the Bay Trail until 12 PM looking for as many species of birds as we can find as a team, along with other wildlife and special wetland plants.
The event will be in English and Spanish, and anyone is welcome to join – including families with young children, small groups, those with no birding experience, and seasoned birders. Binoculars, bird books, and spotting scopes will be provided (bringing your own binoculars is still a good idea if you have them), plus snacks and drinks part-way through the walk. We recommend bringing your own water bottle, sun protection, and comfortable walking shoes.
Some of the birds we might see include spectacular flocks of sandpipers, hundreds of migratory ducks, giant White Pelicans, and tiny Snowy Plovers. Come bird with us and learn about the special salt marsh ecosystem – we hope to see you there!
