SUMMARY:Christmas In May Count Registration
DESCRIPTION:Join Golden Gate Audubon Society’s new Christmas-in-May Bird Counts (CiMBC) on Saturday\, May 8th! \nFind as many bird species as possible in your chosen area… while contributing to community science and generating funds to protect Bay Area birds. \nChoose from 25 AREAS in Oakland or 17 AREAS in San Francisco. Pick an area you’ve birded before in our Christmas count to experience the seasonal changes in bird populations\, or explore an entirely new area. Or select Feeder Watch to count birds in your own yard. Sign up early to ensure your first choice of birding area\, since there is a limit of 10 birders per count area. \nOur count day of May 8 coincides with eBird’s GLOBAL BIG DAY: We’re asking every participant to upload their tally to eBird so we can contribute to this massive community science effort. Not familiar with eBird? No problem! We’ll host a Zoom class on Saturday\, May 2\, at 7 p.m. to develop your eBird Mobile skills. \nAlong with birding fun and community science\, Christmas-in-May has a third important aspect—supporting Golden Gate Audubon. Your registration fee of $25 (or $15 for students/low-income) helps us continue our work protecting Bay Area birds. \nMultiply the impact of your own contribution by getting friends or family members to support your area team! Find your team’s fundraising page HERE. Your friends can make a fixed donation in advance or—to heighten the suspense on count day—make a per-species pledge such as 50 cents for every species you find.

SUMMARY:California Beaver Summit Day 1: Beaver Essentials—History and Management
DESCRIPTION:Climate change is making our state hotter\, drier\, and harder for people and wildlife. Find out how beaver can help. \nBeaver has shaped the landscapes of California for over 5 million years. Their dams have slowed runoff and created wetlands of carbon enriched meadows. They charged aquifers\, maintained stable temperatures\, and cooled stream flows in California’s dry summers. Countless species and entire ecosystems have adapted to these beaver-maintained hydrologies and geomorphologies. \nToday\, across the US\, Canada\, and Europe\, people have begun to better realize the value these rodents provide. The golden state has been slow to understand this lesson. The California Beaver Summit is an important step towards changing that. \nDuring two half-day sessions on two days in April\, we explore the many benefits that beavers offer to our drying state. The first session on April 7th will present an overview of beaver essentials. The discussion will clarify the history of beavers in the state\, their ecological contribution as a keystone species\, their function in aquatic restoration and conservation\, and finally\, how to successfully manage common conflicts beavers cause. \nThe second session on April 9th takes a closer look closer at how biologists\, watershed stewards\, and land managers utilize advances in beaver science and management for restoration. It addresses where they are being employed for fire resilience\, conservation of endangered species\, and cleaner water. California-specific management and policy challenges will be highlighted along with directions for future improvements. Because we are behind other beaver-progressive western states like Washington and Utah\, California is in a unique position to avoid their mistakes and learn from their successes. \nFires in close succession and habitat destruction\, in general\, are significantly altering our rich biodiversity. Drought is a persistent concern. Understanding beaver management can transform this animal from an uninvited guest to an untapped resource. Their stewardship of streams can make our state more beautiful\, more robust to climate change\, and ultimately help keep California’s promise to future generations for years to come.

SUMMARY:Treasures Of Mines Road
DESCRIPTION:Treasures Of Mines Road with Steve Lombardi\nThis virtual 65-mile round trip will explore all of Mines Road plus connecting portions of San Antonio Valley and Del Puerto Canyon Roads. They all run through the East Bay’s Diablo Range in an area virtually devoid of humans\, but not of birds. Our virtual tour will take place in early spring\, when summer residents are returning and nesting activity is heating up. Highlights will include: \nStudy of area specialties\, like Phainopepla\, Lewis’s Woodpecker\, Lawrence’s Goldfinch\, and Greater Roadrunner (a bird that’s elusive in person\, but easily seen virtually). \nA drive around Lake Del Valle searching for Bald Eagle\, breeding Western Grebes\, and several species of nesting swallows. \nViews and sounds of the expected chaparral and scrub species\, like California Thrasher\, Western Kingbird\, and Rufous-crowned Sparrow. \nWe’ll include discussion of the various eBird hotspots along our route\, plus tips for visiting the area in person. It will be a 3-county hat trick! \nSteve Lombardi\, Field Trip Coordinator for Golden Gate Audubon Society\, has led springtime Birdathon field trips to Mines Road for years. \nThis event will take place online via Zoom and last approximately 60-75 minutes. Registrants will be sent a link and password to access the Zoom. The session will be recorded\, and registrants will have access to the recording on the web for two weeks after the event\, regardless of whether they attend the live presentation.

SUMMARY:Condors Of Pinnacles
DESCRIPTION:Condors Of Pinnacles with Rusty Scalf & Richard Neidhardt\nThe bird and the place are both national treasures. The California Condor is the largest bird in North America\, recovering from near-extinction in the 1970s due to the pesticide DDT. Pinnacles National Park—a release and research site for these birds—is a 23 million-year-old rhyolitic volcanic formation\, one of the oldest known anywhere. The geology of the place is truly fascinating. Join Rusty Scalf and Richard Neidhardt for a 90-minute discussion of both Condors and Rhyolite. \nRichard Neidhardt is a condor tracker with extensive experience radio-tracking condors on the ground and in the air\, at Pinnacles and far flung locations in the California Coast Ranges. Rusty Scalf is a longtime Golden Gate Audubon birding instructor and trip leader\, who leads a field trip to Pinnacles each spring as part of Birdathon. \nThis event will take place online via Zoom and last approximately 90 minutes. Registrants will be sent a link and password to access the Zoom. The session will be recorded\, and registrants will have access to the recording on the web for two weeks after the event\, regardless of whether they attend the live presentation.

SUMMARY:Finding Rarities In The East Bay
DESCRIPTION:Finding Rarities In The East Bay with Alex Henry\nThe East Bay is home to an impressive variety of habitats—from vast tidal mudflats\, to rolling grassland hills\, to the pine-oak woodlands of the interior Coast Range. Corresponding to these varied landscapes is an incredible diversity of avifauna. Join us for a chronological exploration of the bird life of the East Bay\, with a focus on strategies for finding the rarer and more sought-after species we are fortunate enough to have in the area. \nAlex Henry is a lifelong nature enthusiast and shameless bird-nerd. Although only a recent resident of the Bay Area\, Alex has spent countless hours exploring the many wild places the East Bay has to offer\, and is excited at the opportunity to share what he’s learned in those explorations. And\, although he’s too self-effacing to recount this\, he was the number one birder in Alameda County on eBird last year. \nThis event will take place online via Zoom and last approximately 60-75 minutes. Registrants will be sent a link and password to access the Zoom. The session will be recorded\, and registrants will have access to the recording on the web for two weeks after the event\, regardless of whether they attend the live presentation.

SUMMARY:Magic Of Mitchell Canyon
DESCRIPTION:Magic Of Mitchell Canyon with Maureen Lahiff\nSince riparian habitat is scarce in the San Francisco Bay Area\, Mitchell Canyon\, on the north side of Mount Diablo\, is a magnet for migrating birds seeking a refueling stop. In addition to migrants\, we’ll also see and hear a number of permanent residents and summer nesting birds. We’ll look for warblers and flycatchers and enjoy early wildflowers and butterflies while walking along Mitchell Creek\, traversing chaparral\, and spending some time under a variety of mature trees. \nMaureen Lahiff was part of the first cohort of the Golden Gate Audubon Society/Cal Academy of Sciences Master Birder Program in 2013 and is a California Naturalist. She is a Lake Merritt docent and leads field trips and teaches classes for GGAS adult ed. She’s been leading trips at Mitchell Canyon for GGAS and for Birdathon for several years. \nThis event will take place online via Zoom and last approximately 60-75 minutes. Registrants will be sent a link and password to access the Zoom. The session will be recorded\, and registrants will have access to the recording on the web for two weeks after the event\, regardless of whether they attend the live presentation.

SUMMARY:Monthly Program: May 2021
DESCRIPTION:Photo by Ivan Phillipsen \n \nPicture from one of the YES Nature Day Outings at a local Regional Park. Photo credit to YES N2N \nBirding Info: In partnership with nature\, YES Nature to Neighborhoods nurtures leaders who champion the wellbeing of our community. Eric Aaholm\, Executive Director\, and Luis Pacheco\, YLP Program Manager for YES will discuss its role in developing strong youth and adult leaders starting as young as age eight via engagement in both nearby nature and backcountry settings. \n\nRufous-capped Warbler\, photo by Ivan Phillipsen \nMain Program:  Birdlife of Oaxaca with Ivan Phillipsen \n\n\n\n\nThe Mexican state of Oaxaca (pronounced “wuh-HOCK-uh“) is incredibly rich with biodiversity. From high-elevation interior valleys\, to mountains\, rainforests\, and tropical coastlines\, Oaxaca has a wide variety of natural habitats. This region is a great destination for birding and for enjoying cultural wonders. There are ancient pyramids and temples to explore just outside Oaxaca City. The ethnic cuisine of the city is world-famous. Other cultural delights include elaborate wood carvings\, pottery\, and a vibrant mescal industry. \nBirdlife includes neotropical migrants and charismatic resident species. Oaxaca has a few wonderful endemic species and near-endemics\, including the Oaxaca Sparrow\, Dwarf Jay\, and Blue-capped Hummingbird. In this presentation\, Ivan Phillipsen will describe the ecoregions and habitats of Oaxaca and present some birding and wildlife highlights of the state. He’ll also touch on some of the cultural aspects that travelers can enjoy there. \n\n\n\nIvan Phillipsen is a professional naturalist guide with a background in scientific research. He’s the co-owner of a small birding/nature tour company\, Wild Latitudes. He is also the creator and host of a podcast called The Science of Birds. \nIvan has loved animals and nature his whole life. His first obsession was with amphibians and reptiles. This interest led him to graduate school\, where he studied amphibians. After earning a Masters degree in Biology and a PhD in Zoology\, he did postdoctoral research on aquatic insects. \nAlong the way\, his love of nature expanded to include plants\, fungi\, and all animals\, including birds. Birds have become Ivan’s greatest passion. He’s an avid birder and loves sharing in the joy of birds with his tour participants. Some places where Ivan leads natural history tours are Mexico\, Iceland\, Alaska\, Uganda\, and Fiji.

SUMMARY:California’s Iconic Oaks and Their Many Relations
DESCRIPTION:Oaks support more life forms than any other tree in North America\, and California’s oaks are no exception. In a presentation filled with woodpeckers\, woodrats\, Wood Ducks\, and many other organisms\, author and naturalist Kate Marianchild will explain why oaks play such an important role in oak woodland food webs. She will talk about animals that rely on oaks for food\, shelter\, foraging substrate\, and more\, and oak mistletoe as a keystone genus. We’ll hear about the eleven functions of a gray squirrel’s tail\, and we’ll marvel at the tiny wasps who bend oaks to their bidding. We will crawl with Kate through woodrat mansions\, fight for breeding opportunities with Acorn Woodpeckers\, and navigate through an oak with the third eye of the western fence lizard. Who could stay away?

SUMMARY:Blackbirds—A Journey Through the Americas
DESCRIPTION:The Icteridae are the blackbirds\, but they include many colorful species such as the orioles and meadowlarks as well as the all-black species\, such as cowbirds and grackles. Some of the tropical species\, such as the oropendolas are downright amazing-looking and sounding birds. This group of birds is only found in the Americas and they are amongst our most interesting of landbirds\, behavior\, mating strategies\, and breeding biology is more diverse than in any other group of songbirds in our continent. This talk is to introduce people to the awesomely interesting group of birds. After this talk\, you won’t walk by a Brewer’s Blackbird or Red-winged Blackbird without thinking about how much more complex they are than a sparrow or a warbler. Our quest to see the diversity of the blackbirds will also take us to some interesting parts of the American continent and the Caribbean. \nAlvaro Jaramillo is an Affiliated Senior Biologist with SFBBO and the owner of Alvaro’s Adventures where he leads workshops and birding trips throughout the world. He has a B.S. in Zoology and an M.S. in Ecology and Evolution from the University of Toronto\, and also conducted research at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver\, British Columbia. He is an author and contributor to numerous field guides and popular publications\, including the American Birding Association Field Guide to Birds of California and New World Blackbirds.

SUMMARY:NightSchool: Songbirds in Spring
DESCRIPTION:Signs of spring: flowers\, pollinators\, and bird songs. If you’ve noticed more avian chatter\, movement\, and transportation of nesting material\, it’s because it’s bird breeding season. Join the California Academy of Sciences to learn about how scientists monitor the health of California songbird populations and get a peek into the Academy’s stunning collection of eggs and nests. \nTo-dos for songbirds during the breeding season: Build a nest\, keep hungry nestlings fed\, and protect nest from predators. Hilary Allen\, Avian Ecologist at Point Blue Conservation Science\, talks about the sneaky and fascinating behavior of songbirds\, and what nest monitoring can teach us about their reproductive success\, fitness\, and survival. \nBecause most birds sing when they are on their breeding territories\, trained observers often survey birds by recognizing their unique calls and songs. Jack Dumbacher\, Academy Curator of Ornithology\, will talk about how this is done now\, and introduce some of the exciting new technologies that researchers are developing to use song and automated recording units to scale up songbird surveys. \nCollections manager Moe Flannery is back\, taking viewers behind-the-scenes to explore some of the incredible songbird eggs and nests that are part of the ornithology collections. Now that birds are busy nest-building\, it’s the perfect time of year to observe the intricacies and diversity of songbird construction and to marvel at the size of hummingbird eggs. \nAll NightLife virtual programming is intended for audiences 21+.

SUMMARY:The Breeding Seabirds of Alcatraz Island and Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Lidia D’Amico and Zoe Burr \nIn this event\, Lidia D’Amico (National Park Service Alcatraz Biologist) and Zoe Burr (Farallon Institute Seabird Biologist) will dive into the world of Alcatraz seabirds. They will tell you about several species that typically breed on the island every spring and summer\, and the threats these birds are facing from climate change and living in an urban environment. Alcatraz Island sits in a unique position within the San Francisco Bay and as a result is one of only two estuarine breeding colonies for Brandt’s cormorants.

SUMMARY:Bird Identification Techniques Workshop 2021—Part 1
DESCRIPTION:There are many challenges to becoming a birder\, particularly if you want to know what everything you are looking at is! In other words\, you want to put a name to a face. The problem is that it does take a lot of practice; the good thing is that practice is birding\, and that is fun! One major challenge is that we focus so much of field marks that sometimes we do not see the forest for the trees. The real way we identify birds is by looking at them not as parts\, but as wholes\, not only in pattern and color\, but also in the way they move and behave. In addition\, we hardly ever focus on one of the most important features on a bird: the face! This workshop begins with getting you to understand how the brain identifies birds–the psychology and brain science behind bird identification. We use that to understand how we can best use our innate skills at recognition to apply this to birding. We also discuss tips and tricks that apply to certain groups of birds and facilitate their identification. We think about techniques that may work to speed up learning birds and also tips on how to get better at bird identification even when you are not out in the field on a birding trip. Your computer can even be a learning tool! This will be a holistic\, multi-faceted workshop on bird identification. I guarantee to you that it will not be like any birding how-to classes you have attended before. I am hoping you will come out of it with a brand-new outlook on bird identification\, and one that will hopefully take away some of the frustration felt in trying to identify birds yourself! \nAlvaro Jaramillo is an internationally known ornithologist and expert. Alvaro has a B.S. in Zoology and an M.S. in Ecology and Evolution from the University of Toronto\, and also conducted research at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver\, British Columbia. An expert on the birds of California and North America\, he wrote the American Birding Association Field Guide to Birds of California and New World Blackbirds. He is also an authority on the birds of Chile\, authoring Birds of Chile (2003)\, collaborating on Chile’s Important Bird Areas program\, and helping to identify a new bird species there\, Oceanites pincoyae (Pincoya Storm-Petrel). An author and contributor to numerous field guides and popular publications\, Alvaro’s passion is not only to understand the biology and natural history of birds\, but to enrich other’s enjoyment of birds and further avian conservation and he leads birding trips throughout the world with his company\, Alvaro’s Adventures.

SUMMARY:Queer Birds: Community Inclusion\, Community Building\, and Community Science
DESCRIPTION:In the early 2000s\, LBGT rights were under attack; there was no marriage equality\, and LGBTQ people often felt unsafe in the field. To build a veritable\, ongoing community\, a group of LGBTQ birders banded together to start what is now called QBNA—Queer Birders of North America. Local Bay Area birder Jennifer Rycenga spearheaded the west coast organizing efforts for this group\, which has now flourished for almost two decades\, with biennial birding trips both nationally and abroad. The community built up through QBNA has always been open to all allies of the cause\, and has been the occasion for genuine solidarity with many straight birders. This model of open\, accepting community parallels the 21st century growth in Community Science projects like eBird\, iNaturalist\, and the BioBlitz movement. This talk will look at the history of LGBTQ birders and QBNA in particular\, and the rapid growth of community science in the Bay Area\, as examples of how birding can create and sustain diverse communities of people. \nJennifer serves as the Board President of Sequoia Audubon. Jennifer teaches at San Jose State University in Humanities.
