Birding at the Ruth Mckenzie Preserve
This is a Sierra Foothill Conservancy event
Cost is $15-$30 depending on SFC membership
Registration is required for this event.
Register Here. You will be redirected to SFC’s event listing
Join Gary Woods and Robert Snow for birding at the Ruth Mckenzie Preserve. The walk is initially fairly easy, along a dirt road that undulates along a stream. After about a mile, the road crosses the stream, and the hiking becomes a bit steeper. We may see enough birds along that mile that we won’t cross the creek. Possible sightings are Acorn Woodpeckers, Lewis Woodpecker, Phainopepla, Red-Tailed Hawk, Bluebirds, and a nesting pair of Golden Eagles.
