Several million ducks and geese migrate through the Sacramento Valley during the fall. More than 300 species of birds and mammals, both resident and migratory, use the refuges of the Sacramento Valley, including almost half of the Pacific flyway’s waterfowl population. This weekend tour of several of the valley’s legendary birding areas should produce great numbers of raptors, ducks, geese, swans, shorebirds, waders, Sandhill cranes and songbirds. The tour will begin at 1pm Friday at the Sacramento NWR, break for dinner at 5pm, and continue Sat. morning at Gray Lodge. Sunday morning we will visit a nearby refuge and depart by early afternoon. Local accommodations will be in Yuba City. Directions and other information will be sent at the time of registration.
