SUMMARY:Beginning Birding and Sauvie Island Exploration: Migration Edition (Sundays: Apr\, May\, June)
DESCRIPTION:« All Events\n \n\n	Beginning Birding and Sauvie Island Exploration: Migration Edition (Sundays: Apr\, May\, June)\n			April 20\n	  @\n8:00 am\n	  –\n12:00 pm \n\n$145 \n	 \nThis is a three-part series on Sunday mornings: April 20\, May 18\, and June 22\, 2025. The fee covers all three sessions.\nThis field class series is perfect for those interested in developing and sharpening their birding skills under various field conditions with local expert birders. The refuge will be completely open in May and June\, allowing access that is closed to the public from October through the end of April each year. We will venture deep into the refuge as spring unfolds\, and the island becomes a wonderful cacophony of territorial bird songs. Explore various habitats on the island\, learn bird voices\, and search for waterfowl\, songbirds\, and raptors. \nLocated within the heart of the Pacific Flyway\, Sauvie Island is the largest island in the Columbia River and the site of an extensive wildlife refuge. We could not ask for a better\, more accessible\, and diverse landscape to call our local birding patch. Join Greg and Ricky for Sunday morning explorations at one of Oregon’s most accessible Important Bird Areas. Sauvie Island has abundant open spaces and a mix of habitats that hosts a wide variety of breeding residents. \nThe mid-spring brings exciting changes to the birdlife of Sauvie Island. By May most wintering waterfowl will have departed for parts north. We will welcome back many of our migratory resident birds\, such as Warbling Vireo; Black-headed Grosbeak\, Western Tanager\, Common Yellowthroat\, Willow Flycatcher\, and Western Wood-Pewee. We will be on the lookout for non-resident migrants passing through\, such as shorebirds\, gulls\, terns\, loons and grebes. \nImportant Details\nMeet Greg and Ricky at the Sauvie Island parking lot near the bridge at 8:00 a.m. each Sunday. Parking permits must also be purchased on your own. \n\nThe only access to Sauvie Island is via the bridge off Highway 30. Consider filling your tank in advance\, as gasoline is unavailable on the island. Parking is free at the bridge parking lot. Parking permits are required on Sauvie Island to park in all wildlife areas on the island. Daily permits are $10.00; annual permits are $30.00. More information on permits. \nYou will drive yourself\, or car-pooling will be an option. Bring snacks and water. Dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes.\n\n  \n\nAccessibility\nWalking distance: Up to 1.5 miles total.Elevation changes: None\, except for one very short hill up to the dike at Racoon Point.Trail: Most of our walking will be along dirt roads\, with patches of mud and some coarse rocks.Pacing: Slow.Rest stops: We will visit 3-5 locations\, with breaks in between. No rest stops on our walk.Sun exposure: Full to partial.Bathrooms: Each stop will have a portapotty. Google map of Sauvie Island Public ToiletsParking: Ample parking.
