Hop on. Hop off. Bird! Meet us off the trolley and discover what birds we can find, just a short distance away from transit stops.

Description

Wednesday, January 14, starting at 8a

Live your best car-free lifestyle with San Diego Bird Alliance!

After we meet at Old Town Transit Station, we will cross the street and enjoy the morning birds of this popular, historical San Diego destination - in a busy place like this, you might be surprised at the birds that surround you.

Next, we'll return to Old Town Transit Station to take the trolley (Blue or Green line - both connect) to the Orange line. From the Orange line, we will hop on the MTS 916 bus (headed to Euclid Transit Center) to the Market St & Radio Dr stop. We will walk up Radio Canyon, where we will enjoy birds of the urban canyon - both the Blue-Gray Gnatcatcher and the endangered California Gnatcatcher have been spotted here!

Hop on and hop off anytime. Register here and we'll provide you the approximate itinerary a couple of days before the event. That way, you can meet us wherever we're at, and head home whenever you like!

Trolley fares are your responsibility! Unfortunately we are unable to provide passes for this free event.

Registration is required! 20 participants max.
