BHAS Field Trip: LOTT Hawks Prairie Reclamation Ponds

Leaders:  Bonnie Wood and Janet Wheeler

This trip to a surprisingly rich, if humble, local birding site is appropriate for all levels of birders, including children. We will walk the easy level gravel paths among the ponds, parcels of woods, and marshes. We will expect diverse species, because the ponds here attract ducks, raptors, wading birds, passerines, and others. For the last few years, a pair of Bald Eagles has nested in a Douglas Fir above the ponds.

Meet at the ponds’ parking lot at 9:00 a.m. The ponds are located at 3001 Hogum Bay Road, west of I-5 off the Hawks Prairie exit. See a map at www.lottcleanwater.org/pdf/hpFact/pdf.
Dress appropriately for the weather and bring binoculars.
