Meet in the parking lot at the Discovery Center. We have a variety of directions to walk. We might walk the loop trails west of the Discovery Center or down the diagonal trail to the SW parking area, or we might start out east on the N. 1250 Rd trail. The direction we take will largely depend on what has been seen recently, water levels, and the current weather, primarily the wind speed and direction. We will focus on sparrows, blackbirds, wrens, finches and keep an eye to the sky for eagles, falcons, gulls and anything else that might be in the area. We expect to finish the field trip around 9:30 a.m.
