Join us at Oakland’s Lake Temescal for an easy mid-day stroll to explore the many birds that reside here year-round as well as the newly-arrived migrants returning to nest here.

This trip requires less than .75 miles of traveling on level paved wheelchair accessible paths. 

Benches are plentiful; some are handcrafted from logs. 

We hope you can bring a picnic lunch to linger by the lake after about 1.5 hours of birding.

Restrooms including wheelchair accessible ones and water are abundant.  For more information about accessibility at this park go to https://accessca.org/access-california/explore/explore-detail-view/?site_id=90 

Bring layered clothing, water, snacks, sunscreen, something to sit on if needed and binoculars. If you need binoculars please let Maureen know by Monday May 18. 

Limit: 12

Directions:  We are meeting at the north entrance to the park, off Broadway in Oakland. Parking: Parking is plentiful with several van accessible parking spaces available. Parking may be $5 cash if anyone is in the kiosk.
