Pinyon Jay Community Science Walk

  • GBBO Office 1755 East Plumb Lane Reno, NV, 89502 United States (map)

As part of GBBO’s Pinyon Jay Community Science program, we are hosting monthly Pinyon Jay walks. These are a great opportunity for folks to ask questions and find new locations to look for Pinyon Jays.

Ned Bohman will be leading this month’s walk on the south side of the Virginia Hills, off highway 50 in Dayton. We will meet at 9 AM to organize carpools from the GBBO office.

This is a good opportunity to meet with other community science surveyors to learn more about Pinyon Jays in the field. Pinyon Jays have recently been seen at their winter cache sites, and we will be exploring a new spot in an area closer to Highway 50 near Dayton. Our observations will be recorded on the Pinyon Jay Community Hub map as part of a larger community science effort to gather more information on the Pinyon Jays. Read the Pinyon Jay story here.

Meet at the red pin, parking for the gbbo office
