Team "Dry Martini, Two Olive Warblers" is back!  Join Linda Matson and Maureen Houlahan as we bird Madera Canyon on the morning of Tuesday, April 7th, for a relaxed morning of birding followed by a picnic lunch.  We usually split into two teams, one team strolls up the path from the Proctor parking lot and the other heads up to the top of the road and  hikes to search for some higher elevation species.  After a few hours of birding, the two groups converge around 11:30 a.m. for a picnic.

Will we see 100 species? NO!  Will we see the most species? NO!  Will we have a fun morning and feel good about raising money for the birds and conservation? YES!  

Donations of any amount are appreciated. You can donate a fixed amount or a per-species amount or you can make a fun challenge pledge.  If you'd like to join us for birding on April 7th, we ask for a minimum $25 donation and you will receive one of our awesome drink coasters with our team logo printed on it, while supplies last (they are handmade).   Contact Linda Matson to RSVP or with questions at heyltd1@gmail.com (preferred) or 520-488-3730.  Cheers! 

Pledges:

  • Bill Sievefrs: $1/species and $10 for an Olive Warbler
  • Melinda Correll: $1,000
  • Marcia Grand: $5/species
