Birding: Skagit Area

Meet at 8:00 AM at the Quil Ceda Village Walmart lot west of Marysville (I-5 exit 200). Park away from the store, to the east, toward I-5. Please come prepared to carpool – the number of cars impacts safety and where we are able to stop for birding, and also we want to be environmentally conscious. Our primary targets will be shorebirds, and we’ll aim to hit hotspots at optimum tide. Destinations will depend on recent sightings but will likely include Hayton Reserve on Fir Island, and Channel Drive.
