Abbott’s Lagoon – Pt. Reyes National Seashore

Sunday, August 21, 2022 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM

Leader: Rusty Scalf

Registration opens on August 11th at 8:00 AM

We will bird the coastal scrub, lagoons, and ocean. We hope to find migrant shorebirds and resident Snowy Plovers. Abbott’s Lagoon has historically been good for Baird’s Sandpiper and we may get lucky. Meet at 9AM at the Abbott’s Lagoon parking lot (bathrooms but no water). Bring scope, liquids, lunch. Plan on walking 4 miles round-trip; relatively flat but trail consists partially of sand. Prepare for wind.

This trip is free but advance registration is required. There will be a limit of 25 fully vaccinated participants for this trip. There will not be a waiting list. No drop-ins allowed. 

DIRECTIONS: From Point Reyes Station on Hwy 1 go just south of town, right turn onto Sir Francis Drake Blvd, follow that thru Inverness up over Inverness ridge into the Point Reyes National Seashore then go north on Pierce Point Road. The Abbott’s Lagoon parking lot is on the left in about 3 miles. Carpool if you can.
