PUBLIC 4 HOUR TRADITIONAL

Duck, duck, goose! Come out and bird with your friendly Field Trip Committee volunteers, aka “The Quack Pack"! This is the group of people who organize SCVBA’s field trips. We’ll bird for three hours around Palo Alto Baylands and Byxbee Park, covering about three miles at a leisurely pace. Pack your lunch! After birding, we’ll grab some tables and eat together afterwards. This is a fun and casual bird-spotting event. We welcome all birders, beginning and experienced, to join our team of "wise-quackers.” Don’t duck out, sign up now, quack, quack!
