Shorebirds of San Diego County Tour: Tijuana Estuary
301 Caspian Way, Imperial Beach, 91932
Cost: $20 - $30
Winter is an excellent time to go birding when the total number of birds, as well as diversity, are at their peak. Longtime birder and photographer Steve Brad will guide participants to some of the most densely populated and diverse shorebird sites in San Diego. As much as 70% of the Tijuana Estuary National Estuarine Research Reserve is made up of wetland area. This wetland contains a variety of unique habitats, including dune, salt panne, salt marsh, mudflat, brackish pond, riparian, coastal sage scrub and vernal pool. This is a wetland of international importance and a birders' paradise.
