After his fascinating presentation on the Vaux’s Swift Migration to McNear’s Brickyard, Rich Cimino returned with another fact-filled webinar. This webinar presentation on December 1, 2020 focused on local wintering shorebirds from small sandpipers to long-legged waders and ducks. The photos are Rich’s personal ones taken in the San Pedro – Loch Lomond marina wetlands.
The video of this webinar can be viewed here or view all our videos on our YouTube Channel.
Rich Cimino: Birding Northern California for 54 years, I am inspired by birding and having fun along the way. I appreciate nature for the value it brings to our lives. I have a strong interest in citizen science, habitat conservation, photography, sustainable-organic gardening and eco-tourism.
Currently I’m a member of the San Pedro Road Coalition -wetlands committee and Marin Audubon Conservation and Audubon Property management committee management member, as well a volunteer leader of Audubon birding tours throughout California. For twenty-two years I have been leader and manager of an international bird touring company, Yellowbilled Tours. I now have 22 plus years of leading field trips to many of the Important Birding Area in both north and central America and Europe they are: Nome, Barrow, Gambell, Alaska to Belize, Guatemala, France and Italy as well including the inter-mountain west Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and Wisconsin for spring warbler migration.
