Upcoming Field Trips

The quickest way to find out about upcoming trips and registration details is via our member's eblast (these will likely come out in the last week of month prior to the trip). If you have not already signed up for our eblasts sign up here.

Sign up and confirmation notes:

If the Google sign-up form for the trip you want to go on doesn't work the first time, try reloading the web page or restarting your browser, then try again.

If it's less than 3 days before a trip that you signed up for, and you think you should have gotten a message but haven't, try looking for it (carefully) in your spam/junk folder.

If these suggestions didn't help solve the issue, please contact us at fieldtrips@pasadenaaudubon.org .

May 9th: Caltech Birdwalk

Saturday, May 9th, 7:00 AM – 9:30 AM
Trip leader: Jieyu Zheng

Join Pasadena Audubon Society for a bird walk on the beautiful campus of the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). Led by current PhD student Jieyu Zheng, this walk will explore the surprisingly rich wildlife community found in the heart of Pasadena. We’ll look for resident species such as Acorn Woodpeckers, Black Phoebes, and Dark-eyed Juncos, as well as migrating songbirds that may be resting and re-fueling in the campus’s diverse trees, exotic shrubs, and open lawns.

TRIP LIMIT: 30 people. Participants will be chosen by lottery.
