Join ecologists with the San Francisco Bay Bird Observatory (SFBBO) to help restore habitat for birds and other wildlife at Eden Landing Ecological Reserve in Union City! Volunteers will get to tour a brand new South Bay Salt Pond Restoration Project restoration site that was just seeded and planted by SFBBO in fall-winter 2022-2023. The restoration site is not normally accessible to the public, so volunteers will get special access to a restricted area while helping us remove invasive weeds like wild radish, mustard, and poison hemlock.

Join Save The Bay on the shoreline at Eden Landing Ecological Reserve to help take care of their brand new site along the road to the kayak launch. They’ll be weeding, mulching, and watering the native plants that are going out this winter. Save The Bay strives to include volunteers of all abilities in their programs.

Birdy Hour: From Mono Lake to Mar Chiquita - A Future for Phalaropes and Saline Lakes

Wilson's and Red-necked Phalaropes are tiny but charismatic shorebirds that rely on saline lakes like Mono Lake and Owens Lake as their most critical gas stations on their epic migration to South America. Saline lakes are threatened worldwide by water diversion and climate change, and presumably phalaropes are threatened along with them.
