San Joaquin Audubon Society

Join leader Pat Paternostro for our monthly census of this small riparian area on the banks of the Mokelumnes River. Meet the leader at the north end of Meadowlark Lane in Woodbridge at 8:00 AM.

Join leader Jim Rowoth for the monthly River Walk bird count through the varied habitats of the CRP. Meet Jim at the visitor center on Franklin Blvd.

Meet leader Liz West for our monthly census of this lovely riparian area on the Mokelumne River below Camanche Dam. Meet the leaders in the fish hatchery parking lot below the dam at 8:00 AM. Most COVID restrictions have been lifted, so the hatchery bathrooms are open. Portable toilets are also located throughout the park, and walking surfaces are generally level. We should be done by noon.

Join leader Henry Koertzen for a beginner birding walk for folks if all ages. We’ll be walking the smooth paved path, accessible by stroller or wheelchair.

The walk will consist of a 2-3 mile loop. First we will follow the path along the San Joaquin River, and then we will cross over to return along the lake.
There should be ducks on the river or lakes that have arrived for the winter. Also many songbird winter visitors in the trees along the water. Flyovers by geese, swans, ducks and Sandhill Cranes are possible.
If anyone is interested we can afterwards drive to some of the other lakes in the development to look for more waterbirds.

Note: there are no bathroom facilities on site.
