For all our trips you will
need to bring your lunch and snacks (cold pizza is always good) and
plenty of water. Dress according to the weather and don't forget your
hat, binoculars and 2 way radios. Car-pooling is always
encouraged, saves gas and more important there is not enough safe
parking place where we stop. A long line of cars has drawn
attention by the sheriff in the past. Talking about birds with other
people is half the fun
Watch for details, more info and updates on your e-mail, at our Red
Cliffs web site and in the newspaper. Field trips destinations
occasionally change, especially end of year trips to areas that are
susceptible to fire. It is especially important to check the
monthly updates if you plan on meeting the group at any place other
than St. George BLM.

St. George gets too hot, it's time for another high country field
trip. How about Oak Grove Campground, below scenic Pine Valley
Mountain? We should find good mountain-loving
species, including Hermit Thrush, MacGillivray’s Warbler,
White-breasted Nuthatch, Brown Creeper, and lots more. Meet
at the St. George BLM office-345 East Riverside Drive- in St.
George, at 7:00 am. Bring lunch and plan to have a
great field trip. For more information, call 435 673-0996.
