SUMMARY:Bird Walk #7
DESCRIPTION:This popular birding site sees an ongoing influx of migrating birds\, with new species arriving weekly.  Group will gather at the end of Radcliffe Road at the Dike Trail parking lot at 8:00 a.m. Hike will proceed along the level flat graveled path to the single-track trail\, turning around at the airport fence at the end of the runway. One side of the trail offers a transitional zone of conifers\, alder\, cottonwoods\, and willows paralleling the runway while the other side is a bird haven of tall grasses\, sedges\, and other wetland vegetation.  The distance from the parking lot to the end is roughly 1.6 miles. This is an out and back hike\, and participants may choose to turn around at any time.  If you enjoy photography\, you might choose to bring your camera along with your binoculars.  (Low tide -2.1’ at 9:04 am) \nLocation: Mendenhall Wetlands State Game Refuge – Airport Dike Trail – https://www.google.com/maps/place/Airport+Dike+Trailhead/@51.8240982\,-139.8219101\,5z/data=!4m10!1m2!2m1!1sAirport+Dike+trail!3m6!1s0x5493636abcdb14c1:0xd2c4a60c42f82135!8m2!3d46.1530454!4d-123.8642852!15sChJBaXJwb3J0IERpa2UgdHJhaWySAQtoaWtpbmdfYXJlYeABAA!16s%2Fg%2F11kpr5hs0h?entry=ttu \nJAS Contact: field-trips@juneau-audubon-society.org \nLeaders: Patty Rose and Jeff Sauer

SUMMARY:Bird Walk #6
DESCRIPTION:This excellent birding site sees a continuous migration through the spring\, with new species each week. Group will gather in the parking lot in the picnic area (not in the large paved lot adjacent to Eagle River Campground and cabins). In the shoreside willows and alders\, look for early songbirds. On the sand bars and tideflats watch for shorebirds and passing migrants. Xtratufs or other waterproof boots are highly recommended. This is a relatively flat out and back walk\, mostly on sand. (High tide 12.2’at 10:46am) Beware of high tide!!! \nLocation: Eagle Beach State Recreation Area (picnic area\, not camping grounds)\nhttps://www.google.com/maps/place/Eagle+Beach+State+Recreation+Area/@58.5302058\,-134.829614\,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x5400fe7cadf81ccb:0x800cb7f594698dae!8m2!3d58.530203!4d-134.8270391!16s%2Fg%2F11b8t86p50?entry=ttu \nJAS Contact: field-trips@juneau-audubon-society.org \nLeaders:  Betsy and Scott Fischer

SUMMARY:Bird Walk #5
DESCRIPTION:This will be a muddy\, 3-4 hour birding adventure through the grasses to shoreline. Leaving the Dike Trail\, the group will head off onto the dirt path out through the meadow to the low tide line. Shorebirds and waterfowl ought to be found along the water’s edge and waterways\, and there is a possibility to see raptors and migrating songbirds in the meadow.  Participants need to be ready to be in and around shin-deep mud. Rubber boots are highly recommended. Although this is a casual bird walk\, it is a longer and more strenuous hike than our usual hikes.  (Low tide -2.2’ at 10:09 am) \nLocation:Mendenhall Wetlands State Game Refuge  – Airport Dike Trail https://www.google.com/maps/place/Airport+Dike+Trailhead/@51.8240982\,-139.8219101\,5z/data=!4m10!1m2!2m1!1sAirport+Dike+trail!3m6!1s0x5493636abcdb14c1:0xd2c4a60c42f82135!8m2!3d46.1530454!4d-123.8642852!15sChJBaXJwb3J0IERpa2UgdHJhaWySAQtoaWtpbmdfYXJlYeABAA!16s%2Fg%2F11kpr5hs0h?entry=ttu \nJAS Contact: field-trips@juneau-audubon-society.org \nLeaders: Rob McDonald and Jill Melcher \nTime: 8 am to noon* (*note longer time frame)

SUMMARY:Bird Walk #4
DESCRIPTION:Group will gather in the parking lot in the picnic area (not in the Eagle River Campground). On one side of the area there is willow and alder\, and fields of grasses and wildflowers. In the opposite direction\, Eagle River flows out to join Lynn Canal creating an extensive delta and tidal flat. At low tide a multitude of sand bars are exposed but beware as the tide comes in quickly and quietly.  Xtratufs or other waterproof boots are recommended. This is a relatively flat out-and back-walk\, mostly on sand. If you have a scope\, it is recommended as shorebirds are flighty and occasionally difficult to see.

SUMMARY:Bird Walk for Beginners
DESCRIPTION:The walk will begin in the Fish Creek parking lot at 8:00 a.m. The varied habitat of sedges and grasses\, shrubs\, alder\, willow\, and conifers along with the fresh creek water mixing with incoming salt water creates a unique and beautiful estuary. Spring migration can bring flocks of sea and dabbling ducks\, shorebirds\, gulls\, crows\, and early songbird migrants. The trail is a relatively flat mile from the parking lot to the peninsula point.
