As we continue the weekend “Covered in Birds,” celebrating the Laguna Foundation’s 25th anniversary, join us for this delightful morning bird walk with avian expert extraordinaire, Lisa Hug. We will carpool to an area of the Laguna that is not normally open to the public, returning to Heron Hall afterwards to enjoy our picnic lunches and reviewing a list of the birds we saw. Further details emailed upon registration.

She was very involved with Point Reyes Bird Observatory and eventually became a contract biologist and freelance naturalist in the mid-1990s.
