Tilden Park is a new stop on our trip list for this year.  The park offers a great variety of birding opportunities including lakes, grasslands and pine forests.  We will bird the Inspiration Point area looking for warblers, nuthatches, woodpeckers and many more.  It's easy to spend a whole day in this park,  but we should finish in 3 to 4 hours.  Be prepared for a moderate hike. 
Meet at the free parking lot at Inspiration Point (restrooms available).  From Highway 24 at Orinda Crossroads, take the Orinda-Moraga exit.  Go east on Camino Pablo 2 miles to Wildcat Canyon Rd.  Drive 2.5 miles up the hill to Inspiration Point.  You can also Google your favorite way in, but check for road closures.
