Heron Days 2017
Description
This year, Heron Days will be held on two separate weekends:
- April 29 and 30 at Lakeside County Park, Kelseyville
- May 6 and 7 at Shady Acres Campground, Clearlake
The boat tours are a rare opportunity to see nature up close on beautiful Clear Lake. Each day consists of six 90-minute tours and 2 two-hour tours leaving between 8:00 am and 11:00 am - see registration page for exact schedule.
Each boat will have an experienced Audubon guide to point out the birds being seen on the tours and explain their behaviors. Besides several species of nesting herons and egrets, tour guests are likely to see nesting osprey and cormorants, yellow-headed blackbirds, and Western and Clark’s grebes in courtship displays where they “dance” in pairs across the lake surface.Register at the Redbud Audubon website: www.redbudaudubon.org. For any questions regarding registration, call Evelyn Wachtel at (510) 501-5375.
