SUMMARY:Sabercat Creek\, Fremont
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday April 8\, 9AM-12 Noon\nLeaders: Bill Hoppes & Pat Gordon\nHo********@***il.com \n\nSabercat Creek trail follows a stream in Fremont with excellent riparian woodland in addition to many ornamentals. There are also grassy hillsides with sites for perching birds. We have a good chance to see both Allen’s and Anna’s Hummingbirds and have a five woodpecker day. Since we will be in the middle of Spring migration we should see great birds. We will start the trip from Old Mission Park where parking is plentiful and restrooms available. After a couple of blocks of street walking we will access the trail at its Pine street entrance. Sabercat Creek has seen extensive excavations for fossils so there are many interpretive signs and even an online audio tour if you would rather listen to it than the birds. The trail is mostly level and paved the entire way. Total length is 3.2 miles but since it is an out-and-back\, you can turn around whenever you wish. \nDirections: Old Mission Park is on Ibero Way in Fremont. Heading south on I-680\, take the first Mission Blvd exit. Turn left on Mission\, left on Pine\, the left on Ibero Way. The park will be at the intersection of Ibero Way and Beretta Drive. From I-880 take the Auto Mall Parkway/Durham Road Exit. Head east on Durham Road then left on Paseo Padre Parkway. Make a right on Camino del Campo and then left on Ibero Way to the park.

SUMMARY:Mines Road\, Livermore
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, April 11\, 7:30am-3pm\nLeaders: Bob Toleno & Juli Chamberlin\nRSVP: bi*****@****no.com\n\nMines Road ascends from Livermore Valley into the hills of the Diablo Range. As you increase elevation the habitat moves from oak savannah through chemise chaparral and into mixed pine woodland. The varied habitats support an excellent variety of breeding and migrating birds\, including some species that are rarely seen elsewhere in Alameda County. Some of the birds we’ll hope to see will be Rufous-crowned Sparrow\, Phainopepla\, Lawrence’s Goldfinch\, and if we’re very lucky\, maybe even Greater Roadrunner or Prairie Falcon. We’ll end the birding in San Antonio Valley\, where we’ll hope to see Lewis’s Woodpeckers.\n\nThis caravan-style trip will meet at the Livermore Park & Ride on Portola Ave at 7:30am. We’ll then arrange ourselves into carpools\, because many of the pullouts on Mines Road are small\, so we’ll need to have as few vehicles as possible. Trip will be limited to 12 participants\, so you must RSVP to attend. Bring sunscreen\, lunch\, and plenty of water. Scopes might be helpful\, but not necessary.\n\nDirections: Take I-580 east to Exit 52\, turn right on N Livermore Ave\, then right on Portola Ave. The Park & Ride  is at 1662 Portola Ave\, Livermore.

SUMMARY:Mill Creek Road\, Fremont
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, May 2\, 8:30am – noon\nLeaders: Bob Toleno & Juli Chamberlin\nbi*****@****no.com \n\n\nMill Creek Road is an underappreciated birding hotspot in Fremont. It parallels Mill Creek\, which creates a rich riparian habitat that flows from Mission Peak. In early May\, we hope to see migrants like Ash-throated Flycatcher\, Cassin’s Vireo\, migrating warblers\, as well as Rufous Hummingbird\, and maybe even an Olive-sided Flycatcher. Resident Rufous-crowned Sparrows should be singing\, and we’ll likely hear the song of the recently arrived Grasshopper Sparrow\, too. Lazuli Buntings and Black-headed Grosbeaks should be relatively abundant and singing on their breeding territories. We’ll walk about 1.5 – 2 miles on a paved road up the gentle hill and then back again. \n\n\nDirections: From 880 S\, take Auto Mall Pkwy east\, then get on 680 N for 2 miles\, exit on Mission Blvd\, turn right\, then turn left on Mill Creek Rd after just a couple blocks.

SUMMARY:Alameda Song Sparrow Habitat Use of Salt Pond Restoration Sites in South San Francisco Bay
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Brad Speno\nDescription: In the San Francisco Bay\, several large restoration projects are returning salt ponds to tidal salt marsh. The Alameda song sparrow (Melospiza melodia pusillula)\, a California species of special concern\, uses both restored and historic marshes\, but their use of restored salt ponds is not well understood. Brad Speno assessed Alameda song sparrow abundance and breeding presence with respect to salt pond restoration age and percent cover\, and height of native and non-native plants. He conducted bird count surveys and botanical surveys at seven study sites\, then mist-netted and banded birds at four study sites to detect breeding birds. Brad will discuss the results of his research and share recommendations for future restoration management projects.\n\nBio: Brad Speno is a wildlife biologist based in San Jose. He earned an undergraduate degree in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from the University of Colorado\, and he worked for various Department of Interior agencies and consulting companies prior to completing a Master’s of Science degree at San Jose State University. He volunteers with the San Francisco Bay Bird Observatory\, who assisted in his research\, and he currently works for LSA Environmental Consultants.

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
