¡Estamos en primavera! La perfecta temporada para pajarear en la bahía.
In early March, we teamed up with Latino Outdoors to co-host a bilingual birding walk at Alviso Marina County Park.
Participants spotted at least 18 species that included a mix of shorebirds, raptors, and songbirds.
Folks enjoyed a beautiful morning and front row seats to a rambunctious Northern Mockingbird, a mixed kettle of Turkey Vultures and White Pelicans riding thermals, and a Sora foraging within the slough.
Throughout the walk, I shared tidbits of bird identification and habitat restoration in English and Spanish, making this an inclusive and welcoming experience for all participants, particularly Latino families and beginner birders.
This is our second bilingual walk in partnership with Latino Outdoors in 2025. We hope to bring more opportunities like this to the community in the future, so stay tuned! (photos by Aurora Cortes, Latino Outdoors)
