Join us for a casual field trip to focus on winter waterfowl and marine birds. We will search the bay for winter visitors from this waterfront park . Expected species include cormorants, bufflehead, wigeon, goldeneye, gulls and the possibility of shorebirds on the beach and eagles soaring over the bay. A scope will be provided, as well as loaner binoculars and field guides for use during the event.

Come for 5 minutes or the full 2 hours. Families with children welcome. A few chairs will be provided or bring your own. Sitting area is flat with short grass. A flat path leads from the parking lot to the viewing area. Accessible restrooms with running water available next to the parking lot in the park and additional parking is available on the street. The park is located across the street from Harbor Station bus stop. 

*The idea of the “small sit” is to offer a type of field trip that may allow some who are unable to attend traditional walking field trips an opportunity to go birding and enjoy the outdoors.
