Natural History Wanderings

The 39th annual conference of Western Field Ornithologists will be in San Diego, California, 8–12 October 2014, at the Marriott Courtyard hotel at Liberty Station.

Field trips include pelagic trips, as well as visits to a wide diversity of San Diego’s many birding hot spots. There are workshops on field identification of warblers (Jon Dunn and Kimball Garrett), vireos (Peter Pyle), and sparrows (Homer Hansen), molt (Peter Pyle), specimen preparation (Phil Unitt), and bird sound identification (Nathan Pieplow). The Saturday evening banquet will feature a celebration of the rich 44-year history of WFO. Ed Harper and Nathan Pieplow will again offer their ever-popular sessions on bird ID by sight and sound.
