A Message from the Field Trip Chair

By Marie Grad 

There are two field trips scheduled for May. I am leading a field trip geared towards beginners for people who are interested in learning about our local birds. The trip is on May 17th. We will meet by the Dungeness River Nature Center at 9:00 a.m.

Kathy McCoy is leading a field trip along the Peabody Creek Trail in Port Angeles on May 11th starting at 8:30 a.m. Peabody Creek Trail is a hidden gem, that will be great for spring bird song.

Details and registration for both trips are on the Events Calendar page of the Olympic Peninsula Audubon Society website.

Future trips will be announced on our website as they are scheduled.
