Please join us for a special tour to bird at Tyson Lagoon, located in the center of Fremont. Owned by Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District and managed by Math Science Nucleus, Tyson Lagoon is a 17-acre land unique in having both natural and constructed wetland combined into a single ecosystem. The site serves as a wildlife sanctuary to the many animals and plants that reside in this area. Over 120 species of birds have been recorded in this area and we anticipate seeing flycatchers, orioles, finches and some wading birds. The tour will take 2.5-3 hours.
