SUMMARY:Summer Community Bird Hike at Oso Flaco Lake
DESCRIPTION:Don’t be intimidated by the distance of this hike.  If you only want to do a 1 or 2-mile hike\, or even just a 100-yard hike\, you shouldn’t be disappointed.  We’ll often be treated to numerous species singing while we gather in the parking lot to start our hike.  The “Willow Tunnel” is famous for warblers\, vireos\, and sparrows serenading visitors on their way to the Lake.  \nAt the Lake\, we’ll find that most of the ducks have headed north to their breeding grounds\, but that doesn’t mean we won’t see lots of cool birds.  Terns\, swallows\, grebes and wrens should be easy to spot on the Lake\, all sporting their beautiful breeding colors. \nOn the quick walk out to the ocean\, we’ll almost certainly see a California specialty\, the California Thrasher.  These long-billed relatives of mockingbirds can often be found posted up on top of bushes singing their territorial and complicated songs. \nThe Pacific Ocean is the wild card for these excursions.  Lately\, lots of loons in their stunning breeding plumage are being spotted near the coast on their migration north.  And there is always a chance we’ll spot whales. \nSo\, be at the parking lot at 8:00 a.m. and join our docent\, John Deacon\, for what is sure to be a fun and informative morning.  We’ve included a few pictures of the birds we may see on our hike.  See you there! \nWhat to Bring: \n\nComfortable walking shoes\nSun protection (hat\, sunscreen)\nReusable water bottle\nCamera or notebook\, if you’d like to record your observations!\n\nSpace may be limited—RSVP early to reserve your spot! \nMeet at Oso Flaco Lake Trailhead \n\nDonations to the Dunes Center are always appreciated\, supporting educational programming and conservation efforts.

Turn left (south) on Highway 1 and proceed for 2.7 miles\, to Oso Flaco Lake Road. Turn right (west) on Oso Flaco Lake Road. Proceed west on Oso Flaco Lake Road for 2.5 miles to Beagle Road. Look for a 6’ tall wire mesh fence and steel gate. Turn left on Beigle Road and follow the road about 1/4 mile to the parking area. \n \nDirections from the south: Take 101 north to Santa Maria and take the Main Street exit toward the town of Guadalupe. Turn right onto Highway 1 and head north to Oso Flaco Lake Road (about 3 miles north of Guadalupe)\, turn left onto Oso Flaco Lake Road and proceed 2.5 miles to Beagle Road (on left). Turn left on Beagle Road and follow the road about 1/4 mile to the parking area. \n \nParking: We will have people posted at the entrance of the USFWS fenced road to direct parking. The gate will be open around 8:30. Please do not park on Oso Flaco Lake Road near the gate as there is not much room and it could be hazardous. There should be plenty of room to park along the USFWS access road. The Oso Flaco Lake State Park lot is another ¾ miles west of Beagle Road\, if you need to use a restroom before the hike (there are none along the hike route).
