Third Saturday Bird Walk – Saturday, March 18, 8:00 a.m.
Vjera Thompson will lead this walk along the new Millrace Bike and Walking Trail in Springfield. She has been an avid birder in the Eugene/Springfield area for many years.
We will meet to carpool at the usual location, in the east parking lot at South Eugene High School, then leaving at 8 a.m. If you would prefer to meet at the walk location, meet at the trailhead behind Booth Kelly, 307 South 5th Street in Springfield. To reach this location, head south on Springfield’s 5th St. After Dutch Bros., cross the railroad tracks and turn left. Expect us there 8:30-ish.
Birders of all levels are welcome. We are friendly to folks looking to explore the fun of appreciating birds. Our intention is to return by noon.
A $3 donation is requested to help support Lane County Audubon’s education and outreach programs.
If you need binoculars let us know ahead of time, as we have a few to lend. For questions or more information, contact Jim Maloney at jimgmal@comcast.net or 541.968.9249.
Program Meetings
Our monthly program meetings have something for everyone. During the last year we hosted programs by naturalists, wildlife artists and expert birders on a variety of topics from the birds of Hawaii, to ravens, wolves, and people, to the migration of red knots. Participating in a program meeting is a fun way to get involved with Coast to Cascades Bird Alliance. Meetings are free and open to all.
We are currently meeting on Zoom and in-person as conditions allow on the 4th Tuesday of each month between September and May at 7:00 p.m.
