Target species will be warblers of all sorts. This hundred-year-old row of trees has historically been one of the best places in California to find migrating warblers in the Fall. We will walk carefully along the road to listen and look for these beautiful yellow visitors. \n\n\n\nLeader is John Mueller (818) 625-9584

SUMMARY:Monthly Program - Free-Flying LA Parrot Project
DESCRIPTION:Free-Flying Los Angeles Parrot Project \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNon-native parrots have become a very present and boisterous element of the urban ecosystems throughout Southern California. Now through the Free-Flying Los Angeles Parrot Project (FLAPP) on iNaturalist\, we created a dataset focused on two of the more prominent species in Southern California\, the Red-crowned and Lilac-crowned Parrots. After being introduced through the illegal pet trade\, these sister-species have established their populations and even created mixed-species flocks that would not be possible otherwise. Our research has focused on distinguishing the two species based on morphological features\, comparison of the environmental conditions between their respective native ranges and their introduced range\, and we are now shifting to understanding how their genetic makeup has been affected. \n\n\n\nJoin Brenda Ramirez to learn how you can help contribute to our research from your own neighborhoods! Become a member of FLAPP on iNaturalist: https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/free-flying-los-angeles-parrot-project. \n\n\n\nIf you’re interested in joining us for dinner before the meeting\, text Chrystal at (805) 261-9885 and meet us at WoodRanch Camarillo at Daily and Lantana by 5:00 pm. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us at the Western Foundation\n\n\n\nWe have the privilege of holding our meetings at the Western Foundation of Vertebrate Zoology (also known as the Bird Museum)\, 439 Calle San Pablo in Camarillo. If you arrive when the doors open at 6:30\, you’ll have the rare opportunity to look around the museum’s collections for a half hour before the meeting starts at 7:00 pm. (Also check out wfvz.org) \n\n\n\nWestern Foundation of Vertebrate Zoology collections\n\n\n\nCVAS’s meetings will be hybrid\, simultaneously live at WFVZ (recommended) and on Zoom. The link to join on Zoom is https://zoom.us/j/6155249106. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlso\n\n\n\nAnyone interested in joining us for dinner at Wood Ranch Camarillo before the meeting\, let Chrystal know you’re coming (805-261-9885)\, then meet at the restaurant by 5:00 pm.

SUMMARY:Beginner Bird Walk - Rancho Sierra Vista / Satwiwa
DESCRIPTION:Conejo Valley Audubon invites birders of all experience levels to attend our monthly Beginner Bird Walk at Rancho Sierra Vista/Satwiwa. These walks are held on the second Wednesday of each month. We will meet at 8:00 am at the main parking lot\, accessible from Lynn Road at Via Goleta in Newbury Park. Rancho Sierra Vista is an excellent place to see many of the oak woodlands birds that are common in the Conejo Valley area. We will take time to introduce beginning birders to these species and teach the best techniques for locating and identifying them. Wear comfortable walking shoes and layered clothing\, and bring water. \n\n\n\nContact walk leader Richard Armerding at (310) 701-3878 (texting is OK)

SUMMARY:The Big Sit
DESCRIPTION:The Big Sit is a semi-competitive international event\, sponsored by the New Haven Bird Club\, in which birders sit in a 17 ft. circle and count birds for the weekend. If you’re interested in joining a circle\, contact John Mueller at (818) 625-9584. You could also form your own circle to compete. Visit https://www.thebigsit.org/  for more info or to register a circle. Also let John know if you register a circle in case other folks want to join you. \n\n\n\nSo\, pick a nice birdy spot\, bring snacks\, make yourselves comfortable\, and see how many bird species you can document over the weekend from inside your circles. Then Monday morning\, send your totals to fieldtrips@conejovalleyaudubon.org. We’ll publish which individual or team got the most species\, and who found the best bird.

SUMMARY:Pipits\, Plovers and Pipers of the Oxnard Plain
DESCRIPTION:Meet at 8 am at the end of Arnold Road at the parking area. We can carpool back out to the fields depending on attendance to ensure we don’t crowd the side of the road. We’ll spend about an hour on the Arnold Road sod fields and then caravan over to Casper Road where these birds are also common. Parking is virtually non-existant on Casper\, so maximum carpooling is encouraged when we travel to Casper.  \n\n\n\nWe’ll look for pipits\, plovers\, sandpipers\, raptors and who knows what else. Bring a scope if you have one. We can discuss as a group when we’re there to come up with a game plan.  \n\n\n\nRSVP at this link on Google Forms for all our field tripsLeader – John Mueller (818) 625-9584 for info
