About this Event
Join the Sacramento Tree Foundation for a birding tour of our urban forest!
Come learn about the natural history of common bird species around Sacramento. We'll work together to identify birds by call and by sight. We'll also talk about the urban trees that make up the forests that we and these birds are a part of! No experience with birding is required.
Register now! The week before this event, we will send a logistics and directions email with detailed information about how to get to the site. You will receive this email ONLY if you are signed-up for this planting.
Who should attend?
Anyone, but those who live or work nearby are especially encouraged to attend! This event is open to the general public. Families with children are welcome. This is a great opportunity to get outside and learn about the organisms that live in our backyards!
