Tickets are not available as this event has passed.

Here at Nature in Novato and in our store at Wild Birds Unlimited, we’re focused on encouraging the appreciation of local nature.  In this in-store talk, we’ll provide a broad overview of the birds our home territory has to offer, interspersed with myriad little tips of astoundingly helpful specificity. Whether you’re a neophyte or long-time birder, this presentation will give you insights into our local birdlife that you can’t get anywhere else. We’ll cover topics like:

  • Where are the best birding locations in Novato and San Rafael? What are some of the most notable specialty birds of these different hotspots and when and how can you find them? (For example, if you would like to see a Barrow’s Goldeneye, Black-throated Gray Warbler, or Lazuli Bunting, where should you go?)
  • How many different bird species do we have over the course of a year in Northeast Marin? What are our local patterns of seasonal migration – when do different groups of birds arrive and depart?
  • What different habitat types do we have in our area? Learning how to recognize different plant communities and wetland types is the key to understanding why certain birds are found only in certain areas. Which local preserves host which communities of birds, plants, and other wildlife?

So if you’d like to see more birds in your everyday life, discover under-the-radar local hotspots, or better understand the place where you live, this is the talk for you!

The presentation will take place in our store at Wild Birds Unlimited at Vintage Oaks from 10-10:45 AM on Sunday, July 29th, with time for questions afterwards. Of course, we always have time for bird questions! Please reserve your seat by selecting your number of attendees and clicking “Confirm RSVP” above.
