Join us as we search for owls and nightjars in the higher areas of the San Gabriel Mountains.
We'll start before sunset when we'll look for Northern Pygmy Owl and diurnal mountain species, and then after dark we'll look for Flammulated Owl, Northern Saw-whet Owl, Western Screech Owl, Great Horned Owl, and Common Poorwill. Weather permitting, we'll also do a quick tour of the night sky, have a quick look at the Moon, Jupiter, Venus, and Mercury.
LImited to 10 people, determined by lottery. Sign up by June 2nd at 6pm. Trip details such as meeting location will be emailed to randomly chosen participants.
