214 Birding the North Mono Basin

This birding and natural history trip will explore the various habitats tucked between Mono Lake and the Bodie Hills. Granite boulders, willow thickets, aspen corridors, and expansive sagebrush are perfect perches for breeding bird species like Calliope Hummingbird, MacGillivray’s Warbler, and Green-tailed Towhee. With ample water this year, flowers and butterflies could be abundant. This trip will enjoy all aspects of nature and wonder. Bring snacks, water, a hat, and sunscreen.
