Tolmie Seabird Watch

November 9 @ 9:00 am-11:00 am

Date: Saturday, 9 November 2024, 9-11 AM

Trip leader: Jason Zolle

Location: Meet on the beach at Tolmie State Park. Look for people with spotting scopes and binoculars. Tolmie State Park is in NE Thurston County. A Discover Pass is required at Tolmie State Park.

Description: This outing involves scanning the waters at Tolmie State Park for ducks, loons, grebes, alcids, cormorants, gulls and other seabirds. Tides will be rising, high tide is at 12:48 PM.

Spotting scopes will be necessary to see many of the birds, but if you do not have a scope, you are still encouraged to come, as other people will be willing to share theirs to see the birds.  Black Hills has one spotting scope that is available to borrow. Contact Bruce Jacobs at bruceinolympia@nullgmail.com if you’d like to borrow the spotting scope or binoculars.

Contact Jason at zollejd@nullgmail.com for more information about the seabird watch.
