Birding at the Ruth Mckenzie Preserve

Cost is $15-$30 depending on SFC membership
Registration is required for this event.

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.
