About this Event

Join Sonoma Land Trust for an exploration of the Sonoma Creek Baylands. We’ll explore this area north of Skaggs Island with a focus on raptors and other birds.

Situated in the heart of the Sonoma Creek Baylands, Camp 4 is a former tidal marsh which was diked and drained over 125 years ago for agriculture and is slated for restoration in the coming years. It sits between the San Pablo Bay National Wildlife Refuge and the Napa-Sonoma Marshes Wildlife Area. Camp 4 is nearly encircled by seven miles of tidal slough channels, making it an essential part of the broader wetland network which, when restored, will act as the most critical defense area against rising sea levels in the San Francisco Bay Area.

The purchase of this 1,148-acre property in 2023 was made possible through a partnership between Sonoma Land Trust, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, the San Francisco Bay Restoration Authority, and the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation.

Únase a Sonoma Land Trust para una exploración de Sonoma Creek Baylands. Exploraremos esta zona al norte de Skaggs Island con un enfoque en las rapaces y otras aves.

Situado en el corazón de Sonoma Creek Baylands, Camp 4 es una antigua marisma que fue diqueado y drenado hace más de 125 años para la agricultura y está programado para la restauración en los próximos años. Está situado entre San Pablo Bay National Wildlife Refuge y la Área de Vida Silvestre de las Marismas de Napa-Sonoma. Campo 4 está casi rodeado por siete millas de canales de pantano de marea, lo que lo convierte en una parte esencial de la amplia red de humedales que, una vez restaurada, actuará como la zona de defensa más crítica contra la subida del nivel del mar en la bahía de San Francisco.

La compra de esta propiedad de 1,148 acres en 2023 fue posible gracias a una asociación entre Sonoma Land Trust, Natural Resources Conservation Service, San Francisco Bay Restoration Authority, y Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation.
