Snowy Plover Interpretive Walk – Clatsop Spit (RSVP required)
When: Saturday, June 18 at 9 a.m.
Where: Clatsop Spit at Fort Stevens State Park
Join Portland Audubon Coastal Community Science Biologist, Allison Anholt and Staff Scientist & Avian Conservation Manager, Joe Liebezeit and learn about the endangered snowy plover life history, conservation challenges and habitat. There will be good opportunities to view plovers and other birds at Fort Stevens State Park. Walks last 2-3 hours and involve walking on uneven, sandy terrain. We will have a scope but please consider bringing your own binoculars, as well as water and appropriate footwear. We will be carpooling from Portland in the Portland Audubon van for a limited number of participants, first-come, first-serve.
Other Interpretive Snowy Plover walks will occur on: July 1 (Cape Lookout), July 3 (Nehalem), July 2 (Sitka) and Aug 8 (Netarts Bay)
