8/23 Sat evening: easy bat hike

[Guest guest]

Some folks at Sarah's birthday dinner sounded interested in this, so

let's see if we can get a group together...

 

Bats of Alpine Pond

08/23/2008

6:15 PM - 8:45 PM (but " Those traveling from I-280 on Page Mill Rd.

should allow approximately 35 minutes travel time. " )

Join docents Karen DeMello and Jan Hintermeister to learn some facts

and dispel some myths about the world's most misunderstood animal: the

bat. As the sun goes down, you'll hang out near the Daniels Nature

Center to see whether bats appear over Alpine Pond, returning to your

car before darkness sets in. Bring binoculars if you have them. (Note:

There will be a 0.50-mile walk from the parking area for a brief talk

before stopping at the Nature Center for observation.)

 

Where to meet:

This Skyline Ridge Preserve activity will meet at the Russian Ridge

Preserve parking lot located on the northwest corner of the Skyline

Boulevard (Highway 35) and Page Mill/Alpine Road intersection (across

Skyline Blvd. on the right).

 

Dinner:

If someone would like to join me for an early dinner, we could eat

either in Redwood City or near 85, such as Fresh Choice Cupertino.
