Description

Join us for a leisurely 3-4 hour walk of 2-3 miles in this bird-rich gem on a level, gravel, former ranch road leading to a historic barn. Resident birds will be singing and nesting. We will pay special attention to identifying the songs of these residents, as well as hoping to spot migrant birds moving through to areas further north or at higher elevations. There are two Portapotties along the trail. Rain or AQI over 150 cancels. Take SR1 south from Half Moon Bay and then turn east on Higgins Canyon Road and meet at the lower parking lot for the Johnston House at 110 Higgins Canyon Road (the big white house on the hill) (coordinates 37.451099, -122.423599). Due to limited parking we will carpool and caravan from the Johnston House to Burleigh Murray, which is 1 ½ miles further up Higgins Canyon Road. Leader: Ginny Marshall. Contact: [email protected].
