That's April Birding Again Thu, 06/04/2020 - 2:10pm \| Lois Richter Recycle Icons-BirdsApril-tiny.jpeg A repeat airing of the April 26th episode "That's Birding in April". Last week, I went and interviewed Mary Scheidt for a brand new "Birding in Summer" episode -- and it was GREAT! Unfortunately, the recording device stopped after a minute and all the rest of the interview was lost. DANG! I'll take another shot at that in a while, but that's why today 's episode is a repeat of the Spring Birding episode. sigh Read more about That's April Birding Again

That's Birding in April Thu, 04/16/2020 - 12:00am \| Lois Richter KDRT_YRWA_winter_spring.png BIrding is fun! And it's something you can safely do with your family at the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area near Davis. This interview with birding-expert Mary Scheidt was recorded outside, in a quiet spot behind her office off Chile Rd. Although the headquarters building is closed and all the public events have been cancelled, the actual Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area is open every day from sunrise to sunset. The driving loops allow you to use your car to get close to the birds without ever getting close to other people. What might you see or hear today? Listen to this episode to find out. Go on out! Fresh air is good for you and looking for birds is very relaxing. -------------------------------------------- Read more about That's Birding in April Add new comment
