Field Trip with Guy Tingos at UC Sedgwick Reserve.

Saturday, December 5, 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

Participation is limited to 15. Members free/nonmembers $20.

Join naturalist and birder Guy Tingos on an exploration of UC Sedgwick Reserve’s bird life. December is an excellent time to view the diversity of bird species that winter here. An easy hike on some roads and trails will take us to an assortment of habitats including a fresh water pond, grassland, and oak savannah. Binoculars are a must.

Guy has been birding in Santa Barbara County for 35 years and has led field trips for the Audubon Society, the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History, and SYVNHS.
