Join us at Quarry Lakes in Fremont to explore the lakes for wintering waterfowl. Pelicans, grebes, ospreys, loons, ducks, cormorants, and sometimes rare gulls are found on the lakes, while the trees hold woodpeckers, kinglets, Yellow-rumped Warblers and more. Bald Eagles moved into the area in Fall 2015,  and several other raptor species are possible.

We'll also be on the lookout for early spring arrivals. Be prepared to walk about 2 1/2 miles on flat, gravel paths. Scopes are helpful.

Parking fee is $5 unless you have an EBRPD annual pass. Heavy rain cancels. Pre-registration is not required, and all are welcome.

Directions: Exit I-880 at Decoto Road and go northeast (away from the bay, towards the hills). Turn right on Paseo Padre Parkway, then left on Isherwood Way. Continue on Isherwood past the Isherwood staging area through several stop signs to reach the main park entrance on your right, on Quarry Lakes Drive. From Mission Blvd., take Nursery Avenue to Niles Blvd. and go west (away from downtown Niles). Turn left on Osprey Drive, then left on Quarry Lakes Drive. After passing the entrance kiosk, turn right and drive to the far end of the parking lot, and park near the demonstration garden.
