SUMMARY:Birds of Sunol & Alameda Creek

High dramatic crags have Golden eagles and falcons soaring overhead. Noisy (and eccentric) Acorn woodpeckers fly among oak woodlands lining the steep hillsides. Along the trails we can encounter Lazuli Buntings\, Yellow-billed Magpies\, Western bluebirds\, Nuttall’s Woodpeckers and many others. One word sums it up: extraordinary. (Parking fee)

SUMMARY:Birds of the Alameda Shoreline and Crab Cove
DESCRIPTION:Sat. Jan. 31\, 2015\, 9am-12pm \nThe Alameda shoreline\, with miles of sandy white beaches and stunning views of the bay\, is one of our local environmental treasures. During the fall and winter it is also a magnet for hundreds of shorebirds — dunlin\, godwits\, peeps\, curlews\, plover\, avocets and stilts\, with lesser numbers of turnstones and oystercatchers — totaling thousands of birds. During a morning walk we usually see over 40 different species of shorebirds\, egrets\, grebes and ducks\, sometimes in great numbers. Best of all\, it’s part of a relaxing morning of beautiful beaches\, salt air and panoramic views of the bay. Too good to be true? Come see for yourself. Good opportunities for bird and marine photography.
