Bird Alliance of Oregon Birding Day: Clackamas County Hotspots III with Dan van den Broek

Discover the birding patches near the communities of Canby and Molalla. Small wetland areas can hold numerous ducks, herons and egrets, and possible shorebirds like Dunlin, while Tree and Violet-green Swallow will be arriving in good numbers. Lastly, patches of Oak Woodland are home to Acorn Woodpecker and the Pacific (Slender-billed) White-breasted Nuthatch.

Bring lunch and dress for the weather. You will drive yourself for the day. Dan will reach out with further details before the trip. 

Trip limited to 10 participants. 

This outdoor program will follow all physical distancing and safety protocols dictated by the Oregon Health Administration. Masks required. Please feel free to bring your own spotting scope if you have one. Scroll down for details.
