Early Birds

Calling all larks! (Night owls can sleep in.) This group is for birders who like to get out there before dawn when the air is cool, the trails are clear, and the birds are perky and plentiful. I know a lot of untraveled and secluded places you've probably never heard of.

We'll be visiting parks, refuges, preserves, wildlife areas, forests, beaches, and rural roads--anywhere away from the crowds. Most events will occur between the spring and fall migrations. Distances will be short and we will take our time and enjoy ourselves.

Early Birds is for adults 18+ only. Please leave all pets at home. Thanks for not smoking or engaging in any recreational substances during our time together. You are responsible for your own comfort and safety, so read the weather report provided and dress accordingly. If you are a chronic No Show, we'll sic the buzzards on ya.

For more outdoor adventures, check out my hiking group, The Contemplative Hiking Society, for rockhounding, moonrises, wildflower walks, fall colors, waterfall photography, fruit picking, tidepooling on the coast, viewing the elk rut, watching the salmon spawn, and spotting whales.
