Cosumnes River Preserve: Tall Forest Bird Survey

Registration for this event is required through the Cosumnes River Preserve.

From the Cosumnes River Preserve:

Explore the Tall Forest's complex vegetative structure, which permits a rich variety of birds to reside permanently or seasonally.

The Tall Forest is a substantial block of valley oak-dominated woodland strongly resembling the pre-Anglo Central Valley riparian forests, a habitat now almost obliterated from California. The big trees overtop a varied, dense understory, and California grape and poison oak climb into the canopy in many places. The complex vegetative structure permits a rich variety of birds to reside permanently or seasonally there.

Come join John Trochet, leader of this survey for more than two decades now, as we follow the birdlife of the preserve’s plum parcel through the seasons and across the years.
