The morning sunlight will be warm and low, casting long fall shadows. The leaves on the California and Aliso sycamores and riparian cottonwoods will be turning the jewel shades of autumn – crimson, vermillion and amber. Birds, just as gemlike, will be foraging among the leaves for winter treats, such as Toyon berries and Taco Tree seeds. Our winter visitors will have definitely arrived to share space with the locals.
Led by Rita Robinson, we will pause frequently to observe, do our best to identify, listen for songs and calls, appreciate and photograph native birds. Learn how different species adapted to our Coastal Sage Scrub, Chaparral and Riparian ecosystems.
Grab your binoculars and join Rita for a rewarding and refreshing morning bird-watching experience at Irvine Regional Park, California’s oldest regional park. The park is a diverse wildlife sanctuary connected to a 400-acre wildlife corridor down to Peters Canyon. With your help, the local nature advocacy group, No Orange Heights, is making great strides to preserve this corridor.
The Bird Walk will roughly cover a 1 mile round-trip with slight gain. Please wear a hat, bring binoculars and camera (optional), water and snacks. Cooler Fall weather now so please bring a light jacket.
Meet in Lot J on the south side of the park. There will be a $5 weekend entry fee to the park or use your Orange County Parks pass.
