CBC WARM-UP

Birding on the Mill Site with eBird

Saturday, September 9 from 9:00AM - 12:00PM

The coastal trail along Fort Bragg’s former mill site offers a great opportunity to view birds of the onshore, nearshore and offshore habitats. Our December field trip will explore this area with a special eye for late-season migrants. But wait- there’s more! More birders are using the eBird app to record and report their sightings Unfortunately, many new users struggle to learn some of the app’s most useful functions. During this field trip, Tim Bray will briefly review basic functions and teach us how to create a trip list. CBC members will find this especially helpful as we prepare for this season’s event.

Meet us at 8 a.m. (note the early start time) in the Cypress Street parking lot on the old mill site (south end across from Taco Bell). Bring your device with the eBird mobile app if you have one, or simply join us for a morning of birdwatching along Fort Bragg’s coastal trail. Loaner binoculars will be available for those in need.
