Magic of Mitchell Canyon

Mitchell Canyon on the north side of Mount Diablo is a magnet for migrating birds seeking a refueling stop, as riparian habitat is scarce in these parts. Along with migrants, we’ll observe a number of permanent residents and summer nesting birds.  We’ll look for warblers and flycatchers while enjoying early wildflowers and butterflies. 

Registration opens at 1pm on Friday, February 28 and closes at 11pm on Thursday, May 8.
