Hi, all! The monthly Birder Patrol field trip will take place next Saturday, January 25th, when we'll be joining raptor expert Bill Clark in a raptor banding demonstration. The meeting place and time will be announced in a few days, as he'll be scouting where the cane burns will be, and hence the best place to go to trap the birds. Fee will be $5.00 per person, and all proceeds will go to sponsoring the Beginning Birder Classes held by Arroyo Colorado Audubon Society (ACAS). Stay tuned!
