SUMMARY:Tour: Extremes of Inyo County (plus a little Mono County)
DESCRIPTION:Dates: May 25 – 30\, 2026\nLeaders: Bob Toleno and Juli Chamberlin\nCost: $975 per person for a shared room; $1\,175 for a single (includes all lodging and meals\, excluding alcohol)\nThe tour IS SOLD OUT\n\nWe’re running a repeat of last year’s popular Inyo County tour. We’ve added one additional night and an extra half day to try and see a few more species than we did last year. Some examples of breeding birds we saw on last year’s tour: Gambel’s Quail\, Greater Roadrunner\, Lesser & Common Nighthawk\, Black Swift\, Calliope Hummingbird\, Black-backed Woodpecker\, Brown-crested Flycatcher\, Plumbeous Vireo\, Juniper Titmouse\, Verdin\, Black-tailed Gnatcatcher\, LeConte’s Thrasher\, Black-throated Sparrow\, Sagebrush Sparrow\, Scott’s Oriole\, Lucy’s Warbler\, and Summer Tanager. Besides the breeding birds\, late May is also peak migration time\, so we’ll be searching the desert oases for the birds who are just passing through on their way north.\n\nThe tour IS SOLD OUT
