Please join our small group as we check the beaches on Drayton Harbor and Semiahmoo Bay, the only designated Important Bird Area in Whatcom County, to locate and observe resident birds and early migrants.
Expect to see gulls, cormorants, great blue herons, bald eagles, a few loons and grebes, ducks and other waterfowl, hopefully a few shorebirds, as well as songbirds. This is an excellent, relaxed field trip for beginning birders but appropriate for all skill levels. Plan to be with us for a few hours of easy birding and help continue the tradition of first-Saturday field trips on Semiahmoo Spit.
Time: 9 AM - Noon
Trip Leader: Paul Woodcock
Registration will open 7 days prior to event date
Trip Limit: 12
Meet at Semiahmoo County Park parking lot.

Masks are no longer required in many places, individuals may want to continue to wear a mask for added protection against COVID-19, including those who are immunocompromised, those living with someone immunocompromised, or simply those who may just feel safer wearing a mask. Everyone should assess their own personal risk when making this decision. Additionally, everyone should continue to use COVID-19 prevention measures such as staying up to date on vaccination, handwashing, testing, and staying home when you’re sick.
