For our next group outing we’ll head back to one of our favorite spots: the Carpinteria Salt Marsh Nature Park. Join us on Saturday, January 31, 2026 at 8 a.m. Note that this outing is a week later than our usual schedule. Winter is a great time to visit the marsh, with wintering shorebirds and waterfowl to look for along with the resident species.
