SUMMARY:Birding Walk-About\, Visitor Center

From the parking area\, we will take a short walk to the Randall Henderson Trail to check out the lower sandy wash area where other birds may be found.  \nBring your binoculars\, 1 liter of water\, sun hat\, sunscreen\, and camera. Sorry\, no dogs allowed on this trail.  \nRSVP is required and you must bring your ticket with you for check-in 15 minutes prior to start time. Ticket reservations begin 14 days prior to the event.
