California Breeding Bird Atlas Bird Walk at Satwiwa / Rancho Sierra Vista
June 5 @ 8:00 am – 10:30 am
Put your birding skills to work for science on this guided morning walk through the beautiful habitat at Satwiwa / Rancho Sierra Vista. This walk is part of the California Bird Atlas (CBA) Big Weekend, a statewide celebration of breeding birds, and every observation we make together will contribute real data to California’s first comprehensive statewide Breeding Bird Atlas.
Along the way, leader Sammy Cowell will show participants how to use eBird to log birds with breeding codes, turning an enjoyable morning outing into a meaningful contribution to bird conservation. Whether you’re new to eBird or already a regular user, you’ll come away with the skills and confidence to atlas on your own throughout the five-year project.
Satwiwa offers a rich mix of chaparral, oak woodland, and riparian habitat, prime breeding territory for many of our local species. Come ready to look, listen, and learn!
