Western Placer County can often rival the great wildlife refuges in numbers and diversity of waterfowl, and it is also known for large concentrations of raptors. Besides the expected species, Eurasian Wigeon, Bald Eagle, Ferruginous and Rough-legged Hawks, and Lewis’s Woodpecker are all possible. Join Richard for a full day of exploring this diverse area and bring liquids, lunch, and FRS radios if you have them.
