ClassGraphic

Join an experienced naturalist to learn about wetland wildlife at Elkhorn Slough as you view them at close range aboard a comfortable, easily boardable boat, floating on calm inland slough water. This class offers opportunities to see harbor seals, sea lions, otters, a significant variety of aquatic birds, and close-in views of a thriving heron and cormorant rookery shore side. We rarely record fewer than 50 bird species on our trips, including many northbound migrants. This trip offers a view of the Elkhorn Slough, and the wildlife that live there, that is only visible when you are moving through the slough on a boat! 

Please plan for time to park, and be sure to arrive on time, as students must complete some paperwork prior to boarding.    

Dress in layers, and for the current weather, wear comfortable shoes appropriate for boarding a boat.
