Join us for a sunset trek through the Oroville Wildlife Area, one of the Sacramento Valley’s hidden gems for winter waterfowl. Watch as Snow Geese, Greater White-fronted Geese, ducks, and Sandhill Cranes gather on the flooded wetlands and raptors soar overhead. Participants will enjoy easy trails and observation points while guides share tips for identifying birds, spotting behaviors, and understanding winter wetland ecology.Bring binoculars, warm layers, and a flashlight with a red lens for the return walk if needed. Cameras are encouraged — the golden light on the wetlands at sunset is spectacular. For questions, contact Oscar Rodriguez, lonewolfthunderhorse@gmail.com.
WAIVER POLICY: Attendance is free, but participants must fill out a liability waiver at
