Black Diamond Mines
Thursday, April 13, 8 AM to 1 PM

Black Diamond Mines is a wonderful, varied habitat but the centerpiece of this trip is a vigorous climb up through Canyon Wren habitat. Other woodland and grassland birds are also likely. Tricky footing through the wren’s rocky habitat, and no guarantees on finding them. Some spring flowers may still be in bloom. Bring liquids and lunch.
