SUMMARY:MDBA Field Trip -- Pine Canyon
DESCRIPTION:Pine Canyon\, which encompasses the Castle Rock (EBRPD) recreation area and Diablo Foothills Regional Park\, provides rich habitat for spring migrants and returning summer residents. Warbling Vireos and their cousins\, Cassin’s Vireos\, both nest within the canyon. We also hope to find orioles\, flycatchers\, wrens\, and various warblers—and if we’re lucky\, a Lazuli Bunting or a Peregrine Falcon. \nPlease bring water\, snacks\, and a lunch if you would like to enjoy the shady picnic tables in the park after our trek. \nTrail Rating: 2–3. Out-and-back along a wide dirt trail\, with some short climbs. We’ll need to cross little Pine Creek several times – without bridges. These crossings are not deep but can be muddy or a bit adventuresome\, depending on recent rains.\nElevation Change: 200 feet\, in a very gradual climb\nLeader: Ted Robertson\, 925-899-1872\nDirections: From Ygnacio Valley Road\, drive south on either Walnut Avenue or Oak Grove Road to the traffic circle. Continue south on Castle Rock Road\, pass Northgate High School\, then drive to the end of the road. \nThis field trip is limited to 18 participants. \nRegister here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/birding-pine-canyon-tickets-1987369743401 \n(Townsend’s Warbler photo by Jerry Britten)
