Great Backyard Bird Count

The Great Backyard Bird Count is a world-wide bird count effort by Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the National Audubon Society. The weekend of Friday, February 15, through Monday, February 18, citizens all over the globe, beginners to experts, will be out counting and submitting their list of birds they see to birdcount.org    


The Cache Creek Conservancy will be joining in on the count! 


February 16, 2019

Cache Creek Nature Preserve 

8 AM - 11 AM (Please arrive at 8 AM to check in. Late arrivals may have difficulty finding the group.) 


Each year the Cache Creek Conservancy hosts a bird count at the Cache Creek Nature Preserve to contribute to this world-wide data collection. This year, the count will be led by biologists, Brent Campos and Corey Shake, from Point Blue Conservation Science. Both Campos and Shake have backgrounds in avian conservation and ecology and enjoy the hobby of bird watching. They are excited to share their knowledge with the group!

Volunteers planted native grasses and flowering plants in areas along the creek at the Park. This was a great opportunity for volunteers to learn about native plants, meet new friends, and enjoy the park, which has wildlife, views and is a peaceful place to visit.
