| Leader: Judy Raskin Meet at 9:00 a.m. at the Boathouse, 751 Park Ave., Los Angeles, near Laguna Ave. Plenty of street parking. Take a leisurely walk around Echo Park Lake, one of the oldest in Los Angeles. More than 70 species call Echo Park their home for all or part of the year. They include Mallards, great-tailed grackles, American coots, great blue herons, great egrets, hawks and various gulls and doves. This is an excellent walk for beginners. Parents are encouraged to take their children. Binoculars recommended, and a bird guide, if you have one. Directions: From N/B 101 (Hollywood) Freeway, exit Echo Park Ave. and continue north about ½ mile. From S/B 101 Freeway, exit Glendale Blvd./Union Ave., go left on Temple St., left on Glendale Blvd., right on Bellevue Ave., then left on Echo Park Ave. to the boathouse.
