Led by Ryan Phillips. Join Ryan Phillips for a morning of birding in the beautiful and ecologically important Coyote Valley. Coyote Valley is one the last linkages between the Santa Cruz Mountains and the Diablo Range and a great spot for wintering raptors. There will be a good chance of observing 14 raptor species including Prairie Falcon, Golden Eagle and Ferruginous Hawk. Ryan has been birding since the age of twelve. Ryan teaches at De Anza College’s Environmental Studies Department, and resides in Belize part of the year, where he founded and directs a non-profit organization, the Belize Raptor Research Institute. Join the Regal Eagles and learn about the avian fauna of Coyote Valley and why it is such critical habitat in need of protection.
