Sunday, March 8, 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.
Arroyo Hondo Preserve
Advance registration required at synature@west.net or 693-5683. (limit 20 participants).

Spend a relaxing morning with Guy Tingos exploring the birds of the Arroyo Hondo Preserve. Riparian, oak woodland, and chaparral habitats should yield a good mix of wintering birds and local residents. Participants will need to bring their own binoculars, although some extra pairs may be available.

Guy has been birding in Santa Barbara County since 1979 and has led past trips for the SYVNHS and Santa Barbara Audubon. He is recently retired after 30 years of public service and is looking forward to having more time to spend birding and leading field trips.

Arroyo Hondo Preserve is located long Highway 101, 20 miles from Buellton and 27 miles west of Santa Barbara between Refugio State Beach and Gaviota State Park. Registrants will receive detailed information with directions to the Preserve.
