Meet at the tiny Kneebone Cemetery just before you get to the Bridgeport Visitors Center on Pleasant Valley Rd. Free parking just north of there on the shoulder of Pleasant Valley Rd. We will follow Kentucky Creek to the Yuba River, past the Visitors Center and historic hay and wagon barn, then across the longest covered bridge in the country, the Bridgeport Covered Bridge. We will be targeting Black-headed Grosbeak, Bullock’s Oriole, Yellow-breasted Chat, and warblers. We should also see common foothill species, including Downy Woodpecker, Lark Sparrow, Golden-crowned and White-crowned Sparrow, Cliff Swallow, Northern Rough-winged Swallow, Bewick’s Wren, American Dipper, Black Phoebe, and Ruby-crowned Kinglet. If weather is questionable contact the leader.
