Trip# 403: Bird sounds part 2 field study
Tags:
Description: This field trip is the "hands-on" companion to the workshop on Friday afternoon (251). The goal is to solidify the general techniques explored on Friday and provide practical experience with field identification of specific Mono Basin bird sounds. We will primarily spend our time standing at different locations while silently noting on paper what bird sounds we are individually hearing, and next, as a group, discussing, analyzing, and identifying these sounds. Though useful, binoculars are not necessary. Please bring a small notebook. The Friday afternoon bird sounds workshop (251) is a prerequisite for this event. Total walking distance will be about 1.2 miles at an elevation of up to 9,000 feet above sea level. (est. driving miles: 28, hiking difficulty: easy to moderate)
