Description: Join Morro Coast Audubon on a pontoon boat ride adventure birding Santa Margarita Lake. We'll cruise the northwest portion of the lake taking in all the nesting birds as well as shoreline wildlife that abound. We will be on the lake for about 2 hours, returning before midday heat. In our most recent visit on on July 20th, we saw lots of Grebes still on their nests, but we also saw baby Grebes on mom’s back.
The registration fee for this trip is $30. Note that there is a $12 per vehicle entry fee at the campground kiosk. Participants selected for this trip will be sent information on the method of payment for the event.
This field trip is not ADA accessible, restrooms are available, and the trip is open to all levels of experience.
