Here's where you can find some basic scheduling information about the Winter 2010 session of the Golden Gate Audubon Society sponsored "California Raptors in Winter" class! This is class suitable for all levels of bird enthusiasts Our mild climate with habitats rich in prey make California an ideal destination for raptors in winter. This new class will focus on the amazing evolutionary adaptations and life histories of California’s hawks, eagles, harriers, kites, and falcons. Presentations include information specific to resident, migrant, and seldom-seen vagrant raptors. On our field trips to Point Reyes and the Sacramento Delta, we’ll have opportunities to view and concentrate on raptors, but we will not ignore the myriad other birds that call California home during winter. Note: Both field trips include birding by car - please plan to carpool, especially for the Sacramento Delta trip The Thursday night presentations which run about 2.0 hours will be held at the offices of The Golden Gate Audubon Society.
