At the onset of winter, join us for a beginner’s bird and plant identification walk through Lake Cunningham Park. The lake is a major destination for waterfowl and migratory birds. The park’s native garden draws many birds for its habitat value. On this walk, Vicki Silvas-Young will show you how to identify the common birds of our area, as well as the native plants they depend on for food, shelter and nesting places.
The distance will be 4 miles round trip on a level path. Bring a hat, water, your plant and bird lists, and binoculars. Wear comfortable walking shoes. Parking fee is $6.
Space is limited. Please RSVP through the CNPS SCV Meetup site: www.meetup.com/California-Native-Plant- Society-Santa-Clara-Valley-Chapter. This walk is organized jointly by CNPS, Santa Clara Valley Audubon Society and Santa Clara Valley Open Space Authority.
