Part of the Don Edwards San Francisco Bay Wildlife Refuge comp lex, the Environmental Education Center in Alviso is the gateway to salt po nds that in winter fill with waterfowl and shorebirds. Commonly seen are av ocets, stilts, egrets, pelicans, cormorants, and wintering ducks along Coyo te Creek, but rarities also turn up here, such as Ruff and Black Tern. We c ould find a Burrowing Owl in the nearby fields or a Peregrine Falcon on a p ower tower. If time allows, we'll also visit the marshland and salt ponds o f Alviso Marina County Park. We'll walk a few miles on boardwalks and flat, paved and unpaved levee paths. It can be cold and windy. Heavy rain cancel s. Pre-registration is not required, and all are welcome.
Directions: To reach the EEC, exit I-880 south at CA-237 and go west towards Mountain View. Take the Zanker Road exit and keep right at the fork, following signs for Waste Disposal Facility. Turn right onto Zanker Road. Continue onto Lo s Esteros Road.
