We will walk through oak woodland and then along the river. We will be looking for small woodland birds, woodpeckers, Red-shouldered Hawks, possibly Great Horned Owls. We will also have opportunities to see birds on the river.

A Sac County Park Pass or $7 entry fee is required for all vehicles.

Meeting Location: Meet Dana at the main picnic area/river rafting exit. From the entry kiosk, enter the park and bear left at the information sign.

Proceed another .2 miles to the parking lot with white dumpster on the right and bathrooms to the left.
