103 DAWN CHORUS - ARCATA MARSH FIELD TRIP 5 
6:30 AM  8:30 AM  $5.00  4  
This pre-breakfast trip is planned to catch the dawn chorus in full swing at the Arcata Marsh & Wildlife Sanctuary. Birds are on the move at this time, so there will be plenty of birding action. The willows will have songbirds singing and the reed beds will have chattering Marsh Wrens and possibly rails. The trip leader will explain all vocalizations from the straight forward Mallard quack, and California Quail "Chi-CA-go" call, to the more intricate sparrow calls and chips. This trips is for everyone and will provide an introduction to the skill of birding by ear. Return to the Community Center for some "shade grown" coffee and local pastries to prepare for your next day trip. Terrain is mostly flat on maintained trails but it may be muddy if there has been rain. Will not stop for food. Opportunity to use a spotting scope.
