Restore Native Habitat to Help Endangered Birds
Manage invasive plants in Mission Bay to restore nesting habitat of the California Least Tern (an endangered species) and to create space for native coastal dune plants. Meet on the northern edge of Fiesta Island in Mission Bay. Once on Fiesta Island: Slight right to stay on Fiesta Island Rd. At the fork, go right. Do not follow signs to the San Diego Youth Aquatic Center, just continue down the road. After about a quarter mile, park on the right hand side, off the road. If you start to curve left and wrap around the island, you’ve gone too far. You’ll be looking for a chain link fence with a gate in it and signs that say "California least tern nesting area." The Audubon truck should be visible. Info: [email protected] or 858-273-7800 x106.
