Leaders: Peter Thomas, Teri Hurst, and others
Lake Cuyamaca and the Stonewall Mine area give us a chance to sample mountain and spring migrating species. We will start at the old mine shaft, and then venture out on trails through oak
and pine woodlands. Possible species include Wild Turkey, various Raptors, Oak Titmouse, Mountain Chickadee and Nuthatches. Migrating warblers could include Yellow-rumped, Black-
throated Gray, Townsend’s, Hermit, and Wilson’s. Views of Lake Cuyamaca should provide Wood Ducks, Mallards, and other waterfowl. Purple Martins have been seen from this area in April during past years. Restrooms are at the Paso Pacheco Campground, just to the south on Highway 79. NOTE: A California State Parks pass, or a day pass (now $10 –available at the trailhead), is required to be able to park either at the Mine or at the Campground. Capped at 15 participants.
Directions: From San Diego, go east on Highway 8, turn north on Highway 79. About 1 mile north of the Paso Pacheco Campground area, watch for the turnoff to the right for
the Stonewall Mine. Meet at the end of the road.

Learn to enjoy and identify birds by ear! This skill allows you to more easily identify the birds that are all around you, especially when they are hiding under cover in chaparral or high up in riparian woodland treetops. On our walk, we will stop frequently and really listen in order to understand the different kinds of sounds birds make. We will identify resident birds and spring migrants as we hear them, with practice and tips on distinguishing between similar sounding species, learning the difference between songs and calls, and advice on how to remember what you hear. Restrooms available at the campground. Bring binoculars, hats, sunscreen, and water.
Capped at 12 participants.

The San Diego River Estuary adjacent to Robb Field is one of the most productive and rewarding birding sites in our region. The salt marsh mudflats, sand islands, and wetlands, always changing with the fluctuating tides, provide rest spots and foraging areas for a wealth of bird species. We will focus on shorebird migrants and year-round residents. If time permits, we will travel to the Sea World Dr. to see what may be further upstream. Restrooms are available at the trailhead at Robb Field.
