SUMMARY:Malibu Creek State Park
DESCRIPTION:Kathy and Dave \nParticipants in this outing will enjoy a leisurely stroll along Malibu Creek\, its oak and sycamore woodlands set amidst a stunning backdrop of chaparral-covered slopes and rocky buttes. Birds\, deer\, bobcat\, butterflies\, reptiles and\, in season\, a bewildering array of wildflowers can be found in this jewel of the Santa Monica Mountains\, now mostly recovered from the devastating Woolsey fire.  Our focus will be on finding and identifying many of the over 200 species of birds that have been recorded here.  You can expect to see thirty to fifty species during these three to four hour walks\, depending on the season.  Common resident species include Acorn Woodpecker\, Oak Titmouse\, California Quail\, and White-breasted Nuthatch\, and spring brings us Black-headed Grosbeak\, Blue Grosbeak\, and Lazuli Buntings. Meet at the main lot\, which is the second (lower) day-use parking lot per the Google map.  Entrance to the park is on the west side of Las Virgenes Road\, just south of Mulholland Hwy. \nEntrance fee is $12 per car. Click location below for more about MSCP and an Accessibility Note. \nWalks will be cancelled in the event of rain. If you’re unsure whether a walk is taking place\, please contact your walk leaders at 747-237-3720. \n\n

SUMMARY:In Person/Zoom Event: Divergence and Speciation in Neotropical Birds
DESCRIPTION:This year\, SFVAS provided support for two advanced undergraduate researchers from the Moore Lab at Occidental College\, to present their research at an international ornithological research convention. Amelia Barnard ‘25 and Mason Lynch ‘24 will describe research on divergence and speciation in Neotropical birds. Amelia’s research looks at close relatives of the Broad-tailed Hummingbird in Mexico\, while Mason’s research looks at speciation in woodcreepers of Venezuela.\nJoin us as they describe their results. \n \nAttend Our Hybrid Meeting!\nCome in Person:\nTarzana Community and Cultural Center\n19130 Ventura Blvd\nTarzana\, CA 91356-3225\nDoors Open: 6 pm\nRefreshments Served \nOR \nJoin by Zoom:\nZoom Link Opens: 6:30pm\nPresentation Begins: 7 pm \nClick Here to Join via Zoom

SUMMARY:Hansen Dam Bird Walk
DESCRIPTION:Hansen Dam is a huge area with varied habitat\, and like the Sepulveda Basin is part of the City of Los Angeles flood control infrastructure operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Unlike the Sepulveda Basin\, in the event of heavy and prolonged precipitation water may be retained behind Hansen Dam for prolonged periods. This means it is not possible to follow the same route for all outings. In general they cover between 1 and  3 miles\, and will be geared to the abilities of participants. \nReportedly over 280 species of birds have been seen at Hansen Dam\, which holds the record for most species seen in a day in the San Fernando Valley at 120. The area we traverse is largely riparian adjacent to the lake and swamp\, but also includes grassy lawns dotted with trees\, Tujunga Creek\, and the large rock rip-rap areas extending out from the dam (Rock Wrens!). Typically we see 30-50 species there on an outing\, and it can be interesting. For example diving ducks in a parking lot submerged under 3’ of water! \nOutings are on the fourth Saturday of every month at 8 AM. Please meet at the Ranger Station.  Walks will be canceled in the event of rain. If you’re unsure whether a walk is taking place\, please contact your walk leader at batesbird@gmail.com or call 747-237-3720.

SUMMARY:SBWR Habitat Restoration
DESCRIPTION:SFVAS is continuing to work with our partners\, the Friends of the Los Angeles River (FoLAR) and the California Native Plant Society (CNPS) on the ongoing Habitat Restoration efforts in the Sepulveda Basin Wildlife Reserve (SBWR). This group gathers every Fourth Saturday morning to work and weed. If you would like to get involved and get your hands dirty\, this is for you! \nSFVAS offers an Audubon guided walk after the work. (Volunteer Walk Leaders always needed.) \nWhat is this all about? See this video from FoLAR: \n\n       \n    \nNOTE: Start time may be subject to change.
