Coyote Hills Big Day

Trip Leader: Alex Henry (awhenry@umich.edu)
Location: Coyote Hills
Date: Saturday, April 6
Description: Coyote Hills is the crown jewel of the East Bay Regional Parks - it’s the most ecologically diverse park along the shoreline with almost 300 species recorded since 1967. In an area less than four square miles, there is a huge range of habitats including freshwater marsh; willow riparian; forests of live oak, buckeye, and pine; plowed fields; grassland; salt marsh; chaparral; salt ponds; coastal mudflats; open Bay. The result is that, on any given day, well over 75 species of birds can be found in the park, and sometimes over 100. Join us for a Coyote Hills Big Day, where we try to find as many species as possible in one day at Coyote Hills.
