Birding Field Trips
Birds of a Feather Flock Together!
Half-Day Field Trips
Half-day field trips are scheduled on the second Saturday of the month. These four-hour excursions are free and geared to anyone with an interest in learning more about birds and birding. Destinations include Willamette Park and other local natural areas. All levels of expertise are welcome. Led by expert birders Duncan Evered and Caryn Stoess.
Meet the other participants and leaders at 8:00 am by the shelter in Willamette Park (end of SE Goodnight Ave.). We will carpool, returning noonish. Bring suitable outdoor gear as well as water and snacks. Weather may alter plans, but those who registered will be notified. Email corvallisaudubonsecondsaturday@gmail.com to register.
Check What’s Happening on the ASC website homepage a few days before the field trip for updates.
A small army of folks are at carrying on the awesome 3- or 4-day field trips organized and led by Fred Ramsey for the past 50+ years. These trips reflect Fred’s vision and tread the paths forged by Fred with guidance and bird lists he developed.
ASC weekend field trips are led by experienced birders and travel is in rented vans. We stay in comfortable motels/dorms and enjoy meals at local restaurants. Sign-up sheets will be offered at the general membership meetings. To hold your place on a trip, your deposit of $25 needs to be received within a week of your sign up, otherwise, your spot may go to another person.
Some trips may be canceled if there are not enough signees!
