Registration is NOT required for this field trip.

Field Trip Leaders: Rich Howard and Dana Miller-Blair

A leisurely walk along the American River should turn up many of our resident and winter visiting oak woodland and river birds. This trip is suitable for bird lovers of all levels. We will have at least one scope for closer views of more stationary birds.

Walking in the riparian area is fairly level on an unpaved trail or grass; a paved trail is available further from the river.

Meeting Location: Meet Rich and Dana in the last parking area on Tarshes Drive just before the golf course clubhouse.

Directions: From California Ave in Fair Oaks, take the Tarshes Drive entrance and follow it all the way to the last parking lot on your left. A Sac County Park Pass, or $7 entry fee is required for all vehicles. Email Rich if further directions are required.

COVID 19 Precautions: All participants, including field trip leaders, must be vaccinated.
