Family Birding in the Laguna with Lisa Hug

Watching birds is a great way to spend time with your loved ones. It doesn’t matter if you are marveling over the huge size of the Great Blue Heron, or admiring the colors on the tiny Lesser Goldfinches, it is a fun activity for people of all ages. The trail through the Laguna de Santa Rosa area is a winding, flat, paved trail with a mixture of Oak Trees, grasslands, vineyards, and a willow wonderland circling a beautiful pond. Come and join us for a fun June Sunday morning.

Lisa Hug originally came to California from the Midwest in 1986. She was very involved with Point Reyes Bird Observatory and eventually became a contract biologist and freelance naturalist in the mid-1990s. She has been teaching for the College of Marin, Petaluma Adult School and Point Reyes Field Institute for over a decade. She was president of Redwood region Ornithological Society for two years and received the Martha Bentley and Ernestine Smith Award For the Dedication to Wildlife Conservation Education in 2009. She is currently a regional Coordinator for the Sonoma County Breeding Bird Atlas. In 2014 she worked with the Laguna Foundation as the editor of our Birds Checklist for the Laguna de Santa Rosa, which can be bought through the Laguna Foundation Store or in our Heron Hall Gift Shop at the Laguna Environmental Center.
