The San Diego Beginning Birders

Please join Rob and me as we revisit a favorite stretch of the San Dieguito River Park in Del Mar! An easy 2-hour ramble along the creek and adjacent golf course with restrooms available near the parking lot. It should be a colorful outing with Vermilion Flycatchers and Western Bluebirds often making appearances!

**If you don't get a location comment notification by Wednesday, please message me for the location!**

Hello birders! I'll be leading Denise's monthly Oceanside walk along this wonderful creekside habitat where I have high hopes we'll see (and hear!) several California Gnatcatchers (a fave, see above!) and some fun winter visitors as well. We'll wander this easy 1.5-mile walk on a flat dirt trail, out and back. No restrooms or water.

Come early to borrow binoculars! ~Evie

This is a very easy 1 mile walk out and 1 mile back discovering the birds along the Garrison Creek and the open spaces. Wear comfortable shoes, a hat & bring water. Don’t forget your binoculars. I’ll have a scope. At this time of year we should see Yellow-breasted Chats, Black-headed and Blue Grosbeaks, woodpeckers, towhees, California Thrashers, all kinds of Raptors. Some marsh birds are always a possibility.Directions: From the intersection of El Camino Real and Oceanside Blvd., go east on Oceanside Blvd., turn left (north) into the first gate. Park to the left.
From the East: take the El Camino exit from the 78. Turn right. At Oceanside Blvd (down the big hill and after RR tracks) turn right and get into left lane immediately. The driveway is the first left on Oceanside Blvd.
