Registration is NOT required for this field trip.

Field Trip Leader:  Dan Williams

Join Dan for a short morning walk through this historic jewel on the Parkway. We will be looking for early spring migrants as well as resident nuthatches, wrens, towhees, and other small passerines. We’ll start out birding the riparian habitat along the river down to the swale below the end of the golf course and finish the loop by walking the path back along the driving range. Trip will end before noon. This is a great trip for beginners and more experienced birders. A Sac County Park Pass or $7 entry fee is required for all vehicles.

Meeting Location: Meet Dan at the main picnic area parking lot across from the golf course clubhouse.

Directions: From the intersection of Fair Oaks and Marconi, proceed east on Palm Drive. Turn right on California Ave and left on Tarshes Drive into the park. After showing your park pass or paying to park at the kiosk, proceed to the end of Tarshes Drive and park in the farthest lot on the left across from the golf course clubhouse.
