No longer is a true island, this small preserve still a wildlife oasis at the edge of urban Novato and the surrounding seasonal wetlands. The forest and grasslands here are home to a variety of birds (including many breeding raptors), reptiles, insects and wildflowers. This walk is for adults. We request that no animals (except service animals) attend. Heavy rain may cancel. If questionable weather, call (415) 893-9527 on the morning of the walk for a recorded message to see if the walk is cancelled. Shannon Burke will lead.
Questions: Contact Shannon at (415) 893-9520 or SBurke@marincounty.org.
