Upcoming Events

Thank you to everyone who participated in our Great Backyard Bird Count. Our list totaled 55 species, including a Great Horned Owl, California Thrasher, Ruby-crowned Kinglet, and amazing views of a Green Heron! We submitted the list to researchers at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the National Audubon Society to contribute to their data on migration patterns and long-term population trends. 

Locally-sourced, native grasses and wildflowers are now taking root in the riparian area at the Cache Creek Nature Preserve! Thank you to Hedgerow Farms and the 18 volunteers who gave their time to help establish native habitat! 

Cache Creek Conservancy and NORR presented concepts for the proposed Visitor Center at the Woodland Public Library in January. The overall public reaction to the proposal was positive. Concerns included restroom facilities and ensuring environmental and fire safety. 

Its not too late to give your feedback!

A big thank you to everyone who showed support and visited the Nature Preserve during our "Meet the Curators!" event in December.  Our interns gained valuable experience developing and presenting the exhibit! 

The mammal exhibit will continue to be on display until spring and shows many of the different species found here at the Cache Creek Nature Preserve. It includes beaver, bat, river otter, raccoon, and bobcat to name a few! We encourage you to come visit us and learn about native mammals!

 The Cache Creek Nature Preserve was open late for an after-dark, guided tour. Visitors experienced nature after dark for a unique opportunity to be immersed in nature's night-time sounds and activity. Bats, owls, deer, and beaver were among the nocturnal animals we observed!
