Fox Sparrow by Chris Johnson
Ulistac Natural Area Fall Migrants
Join us for a leisurely bird walk to look for migrant songbirds, woodpeckers, and raptors. This urban open space with oak and riparian woodlands and seasonal wetlands contains the last 40 acres of natural, undeveloped land along the Guadalupe River in the city of Santa Clara. Park volunteers are continuing to remove invasive species and add California native plants making this place a rich urban sanctuary great for year-round birding.
