TOUR SUMMARY
Our Bay Area High Tides tour is back! The January peak tide will be one of the highest in many years, almost 10 feet above sea level at some locations. This will make for phenomenal birding and tidepooling in the rich habitats of the central California coast. As a bonus, we have added a couple days in the Central Valley to witness the winter concentrations of raptors and waterbirds, including 1000s of Snow Geese and Sandhill Cranes. Join us this coming winter for our return to the central California. We’ll show you an abundance of wintering and California specialty birds while visiting the best habitat oases in this major metropolitan area.
Your Host and Trail Boss, Stephen Shunk
