This is a wonderful chance to get up close and personal with wild birds and animals and the people who love them. There are walks, exhibits, artists, films, soundscapes. They have really good organic, vegetarian food as well as the usual non-veggie fare. For walks bring warm clothes, good boots and binoculars/cameras. This festival takes place on the migratory path for many of the wild birds species coming through the Bay Area at this time of year. There is also a chapel with antique Tiffany glass panels which is open during the festival.

As many of you know, I have been an artist in Shady Lane Gallery in Palo Alto for 35 years. I make hand-knotted necklaces and bracelets. I also make earrings to match some of my pieces. Our gallery now has a beautiful, new website and you can actually see a few of my pieces on it. Click on Local Artists and scroll down to the bottom of the page. My pieces are in hand blown glass vases. My CD is for sale as well.
