The group will join the usual field trip at the Rodman Preserve at 6350 Westlake Road held by the Lake County Land Trust, and then drive to the Rodman Slough County Park for some more bird watching.
The trip starts at 9 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 19.
Meet at the nature center at the Rodman Preserve at the corner of Westlake Road and the Nice-Lucerne Cut-off.
For information call Pat Harmon at 707-263-4977 or Roberta Lyons at 707-994-2024.
For an added bonus, if any of you have children or grandchildren, bring them along and they can participate in the special Children’s Nature Education program at the Land Trust’s nature center, which also starts at 9 a.m.
Parents or grandparents can enjoy the walk, while their kids enjoy learning about how “animals and plants prepare for winter,” from expert nature education specialist, Elaine Mansell.

Nonperishable food items will be collected by Boy Scouts Troop 315 and donated to Season of Sharing, which gives out boxes of food to needy families during the holidays.
The free, family-oriented event (costumes are encouraged) is open to all Lake County residents, friends and relatives.
It starts and finishes at Hardester’s shopping center (take Hartmann Road exit off Highway 29, about four miles north of Middletown) and includes a noncompetitive two-mile walk or a three-mile jog. All participants must sign a waiver, with adults signing for youths under age 18.
The Milers encourage participants to donate nonperishable food items to a worthy local cause. Entrants who bring nonexpired canned and boxed food (no jars, please) including pasta, dried beans, vegetables, tuna, potted meat and soups will be entered in a raffle held after the trot.
Raffle prizes are donated by Hardester’s Markets, Mountain High Coffee, Chic Le Chef and the Milers.
The Milers will provide hot beverages, juices, pastries and fruit.
“Don’t miss this chance to get a little exercise and some socializing with family and friends before sitting down for the Thanksgiving feast,” said Milers President Jeanine Burnett.
For more information, please call the Milers at 707-987-3229.
