San Joaquin Audubon Society

Join San Joaquin Audubon Society members for our monthly visit to Lodi Lake on the first Saturday of every month. There is free parking along Laurel Avenue, where we begin our visit by checking out the oaks there. Our leader will then guide us through the nearby Nature Area. We will search for both residents and migrants. ALL LEVELS OF BIRDERS ARE WELCOME, particulalrly newbies who are interested in learning more about birds and birding. Everyone has to start somewhere! Bring your own optics if you have them, but there will be a few loaners available. We meet along Laurel Ave, which forms the SE border of Lodi Lake Park.

Every season offers something of interest!!

Join leader Jim Rowoth for the monthly River Walk bird count through the varied habitats of the CRP. Meet Jim at the visitor center on Franklin Blvd.

Meet leader Liz West for our monthly census of this lovely riparian area on the Mokelumne River below Camanche Dam. Meet the leaders in the fish hatchery parking lot below the dam at 8:00 AM. Most COVID restrictions have been lifted, so the hatchery bathrooms are open. Portable toilets are also located throughout the park, and walking surfaces are generally level. We should be done by noon.

Join leader Pat Paternostro for our monthly census of this small riparian area on the banks of the Mokelumnes River. Meet the leader at the north end of Meadowlark Lane in Woodbridge at 8:00 AM.

Join leader Henry Koertzen for a beginner birding walk for folks if all ages. We will start near the intersection of Main St & Central Pkwy (at the pond side of the road). We’ll be walking the smooth dirt/paved path, accessible by stroller or wheelchair.

First we will circle the wetlands which is about one mile. If we still have time and energy we will walk along the creek for another mile of two.

Note: there are bathroom facilities on site.
