Outdoor Meetups   

Visit the Llano Seco Viewing Platform to learn to identify the ducks and geese that spend the winter here. Then, at dusk, the waterfowl fly out from the ponds to nearby fields to feed at night. This can be an impressive sight with the large number of flocks in the air. Bring a folding chair and binoculars, and we’ll sit back and enjoy the scenic view as we watch them flying against the sunset and full moon.

Through observation and the use of binoculars and field guides, class participants learn to identify birds in their natural habitat. We will meet once a month at different birding locations for field trips that typically involve one to two miles of walking.

Bidwell Park is to be enjoyed and protected. Experienced hikers will get a strenuous workout and learn about Bidwell Park and its flora, fauna, volunteerism, and history. We will hike up to six miles, with 1,000' elevation change on less familiar trails. Get your endorphins pumping and meet some new hiking friends in your own Bidwell backyard.
