Meet at the tiny Kneebone Cemetery just before you get to the Bridgeport Visitor’s 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 Visitor’s center and historic hay and wagon barn, then across the longest covered bridge in the country, the Bridgeport Covered Bridge. We will be targeting the resident species such as Spotted and California Towhees, Wrentits, Band-tailed Pigeons, Northern Flickers,Tree Swallows, etc. Fall migrants like Ruby-crowned Kinglets, White-crowned and Golden-crowned Sparrows should also be around. Bald Eagles and American Dippers are often seen as well. If weather is questionable contact the leader. All birding levels welcome.
