Reminder - Join Us for High Tides in July!

Mid-July brings some especially large tides, an excellent opportunity to see shorebirds and waterfowl up close along the Coastal Trail. The weather forecast looks rainy, but this morning there were 16 Hudsonian godwits, 30 dowitchers, two crane colts, a harlequin duck and gobs of other waterfowl and gulls - all just a few feet away! Totally worth getting a little bit wet to see that.

Join us at the mouth of Fish and Chester (Chanshtnu) Creeks, at the Audubon wayside, to experience this dynamic birding hotspot and learn more about the birds that use this coastal habitat. These informal outings are open to everyone. More about this birding location is here. John Pearce is the onsite contact for this event.

See below for dates and times or check the Events page on our website.

Bike (and Bird) the Moose!

Anchorage Audubon will have an information table at Kincaid Park for the Bike the Moose event on July 18th, organized by Bike Anchorage. With about 200 riders, this is a great opportunity to share information about habitats for birds along Anchorage’s Moose Loop and help riders identify common birds during their ride.

Want to help Anchorage Audubon with our afternoon outreach table at Kincaid Park? Send us an email at info@anchorageaudubon.org. Hannah Brewster is the onsite contact for this event.

WHAT’S AHEAD?

It’s too early to be wishing for fall, but we already have field trips planned for August, and some great speakers lined up for the fall and winter. Our fall program will start September 17th at the BP Energy Center. We’ll post additional information to the Events page of our website in late July and send another email with more information.

Enjoy the birds!
