Audubon Birding Day: Broughton Beach & West Delta Park Wetlands
Join Ross as we bird the popular Columbia River sandy beach with some of the few locally remaining patches of short-grass habitat crucial for birds like Horned Lark, Western Meadowlark, and American Pipit. We’ll also explore the nearby wetlands and riparian habitat of West Delta Park, which provide havens for waterfowl, shorebirds, and songbirds as they migrate through the surrounding highly developed cityscape.
