SUMMARY:Gray Lodge Wildlife Area
DESCRIPTION:Sora ©Kelli O’Neill \nDate: Saturday\, November 28\, 2026\nTime: 8:00am – 4:00pm\nTrip Leaders:  Genevieve Colborn and Kelli O’Neill \nDescription\nWe are heading to Gray Lodge Wildlife Area on this year’s post-Thanksgiving trip. Gray Lodge is the winter home of many iconic Central Valley waterfowl including Snow and Greater White-fronted Geese and hosts high concentrations of waterfowl. Additionally\, the Wildlife Area and surrounding roads host many raptors and open-country songbirds. We will bird walk the trail and drive the auto tour loop\, stopping at observation decks overlooking bird-busy wetlands. We will then head to South Butte Road\, an area around the Sutter Buttes south of Gray Lodge in search of Sandhill Cranes. This is an excellent location to find Ferruginous Hawk and Prairie Falcon. Bring lunch as we will picnic at Gray Lodge. \nFor further information regarding species that may be encountered on this field trip\, check out the latest checklists on eBird for each location: \nGray Lodge Wildlife Area: https://ebird.org/hotspot/L368257/recent-checklists \nWest Butte Road: https://ebird.org/hotspot/L601662/recent-checklists?yr=cur \nAccessibility\nBirding will be done by car and walks on flat\, mostly even terrain. Bathrooms will be available at Gray Lodge WA \nMeeting Location and Registration\n​Please contact Zane Pickus at yolobirdalliance@gmail.com to register and for details regarding where to meet. This trip will be limited to 12 participants in a maximum of 4 cars. Bring binoculars\, a scope (if you have one)\, water\, lunch (for a picnic at Gray Lodge)\, and snacks. High winds or significant rain will cancel the trip. Beginners are welcome! We will conclude at approximately 4:00pm. \nAdditionally\, a one-day CDFW Lands Pass is required for each visitor aged 16 years or older. You must purchase the Lands Pass before the day of the trip.  It can be purchased online at: https://wildlife.ca.gov/Licensing/Lands-Pass.  A Lands Pass may also be available for purchase locally at Big-5 Sporting Goods stores.
