Mountain View Reservoir
Meet at: Nampa HS Parking Lot off of Lake Lowell Rd.

These birding trips every Saturday morning during August, September and October are sponsored by Palouse Audubon and Canyon Birders, and will focus on the fall migration of waterfowl and shorebirds through our region. Field trip leaders will be there from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

This is a great time of year to observe migrants at the lake. Come join us any Saturday morning at 8:30 a.m. through the end of October. I am hoping to have at least one monthly trip that starts at Mann Lake and continues on to some close birding location. This will provide some alternative birding areas to enjoy during migration. I will email those that are on my field trip list about additional places to be visited that day.

For those of you that would like a reminder about field trips please let me know if you are not already receiving a reminder email. My email address is clgtlg@moscow.com.
