“Wind Energy with Birds and People in Mind.“

 
a presentation by Bridget Mulkerin

Offshore wind, when responsibly sited, is supported by the National Audubon Society as reflected in their January 2025 report, “Birds and Offshore Wind: Developing the Offshore Wind that Birds Need.”


Mulkerin, Senior Manager of Climate Policy at Audubon California, will share insights from this report with additional information on California’s offshore wind sector, including how Audubon California has been involved in ensuring this energy source is developed responsibly with birds and people in mind.

Completely revised and updated, this book presents 26 birding routes throughout the county, with nearly 500 eBird hotspots mentioned. 

It provides information on where and when to look for about 120 of Humboldt's less common birds, with numerous maps and photos. 

The book is spiral bound for ease of use in the field. 

Whether you're looking for a particular species or simply a good place to go birding in Humboldt, this book is for you!
 

We are happy to mail copies to you, and they are also available in many local locations. Click here for instructions to have one sent, and local locations to purchase a book.

to create more bird habitat!


We're making great progress! 

We meet in the parking lot behind Walmart at the Bayshore Mall. We will provide tools, gloves, and guidance.

And we have yummy snacks!

Last month we made good use of the green waste bin, loading it up with Scotch broom, fennel, pampas grass, English ivy and blackberry vines!

See examples of the changes we're creating!
