   UPCOMING FIELD TRIPS: 

Saturday April 19th – KHYV Peak – Migrating Hawks

We will be doing some hawkwatching up at the Khyv Peak Overlook that is accessed from Provo Canyon. We will be sitting enjoying the views and any migrating hawks that fly by. It's a great chance to practice your skill at identifying hawks in flight. We will meet at the Khyv Peak overlook at 11 AM and stay until around 2 PM. It'd be great if you could bring a chair and something to drink and come see what is out migrating. Keep a close eye on the Facebook page in case there are any last-minute changes because of weather or conditions.

Saturday April 26th – Antelope Island

We will be heading out to look at shorebirds and see what migrants have showed up on Antelope Island. The sun comes early, so it will be an early start to avoid poor light and heat shimmers. We will meet at the American Fork Pioneer Crossing Park and Ride at 6:30 AM. We will try to carpool. We will check the causeway for shorebirds and work our way to Garr Ranch to see what is around. If you bring lunch, we will stop and eat at the picnic area at Garr Ranch before heading back home. I'm hoping to be back between 1 and 2 o'clock in American Fork. A reminder that Antelope Island is a state park, so bring a pass if you have one, also there is a $2 fee to cross the causeway per vehicle. (Entrance fee $15 per vehicle, $10 seniors 65+, plus $2 causeway fee)
