Description:
LET’S FLOCK TO SAUVIE ISLAND FOR BIRD WATCHING
Early March is the best time of the year to see the greatest concentration of birds in Oregon gathered at
Sauvie Island, thirty miles west of Portland. Rick Ahrens will help us identify the birds we see. The birds are preparing for the flight north, putting on muscle and fat for their long journey. The 12,000 plus acres of wildlife management area is alive with birds; snow and Canada geese, swans, sand hill cranes, ducks, shore birds, egrets, herons, eagles, hawks and song birds. The ancestors of these birds kept Lewis and Clark’s Corps of Discovery awake all night when they camped on the island’s shore line. Sauvie Island is bordered on the north by the Columbia River and on the east by the Willamette River. We will stop at designated spots to observe the birds and to view the Willamette River. The end of the road is three and a half miles from the Columbia but the light house at the point is visible. BRING A SACK LUNCH.
Cost: Members $47.00 Non-Members $49.00 - Due Feb. 10
