SAS Field Trip: Meiss Road Evening Trip

This field trip is FULL. Please email Chris to be added to the waitlist.

Field Trip Leader: Chris Conard

This evening tour of Meiss Rd in eastern Sacramento County offers a good chance for Lesser Nighthawks, as well as other grassland birds. Horned Larks and Meadowlarks will be in full song. Grasshopper Sparrows are possible but can be hard to find. Plan for portions of the road being bumpy but passable in most vehicles. The best chance for nighthawks will be after sunset but before complete darkness sets in.

Field Trip Registration: This field trip is FULL. Registration is required for this trip, and it will be limited to 15 participants. Please email Chris to be added to the waitlist. Directions and confirmation of exact meeting location and time will be provided upon registration.
