Field Trip: Morro Rock Fall Birds
Date: 9/9/2025
Time: 09:00am to 11:30am
Leader(s): Claudia Freitas & Karen Watts
Description: Enjoy a leisurely walk around both sides of the rock for excellent birdwatching opportunities. We'll observe cormorants, pelicans, sea ducks, various gull species, and a range of migratory shorebirds. Keep an eye out for our resident Peregrine Falcons and land birds that inhabit the coastal sage scrub on the rock. Special emphasis will be on the “Fall Birds” that are returning to Morro Bay from their nesting grounds in the north. This easy, one-mile walk follows a flat dirt path and paved surfaces.
This field trip is ADA accessible, bathrooms are available, and the trip is open to all levels of experience.
