This episode offers an inside look at East Bay Regional Park District’s birding programs
Birding is more than a recreational activity—it's an invitation to observe, appreciate, and profoundly connect with the natural world. At the East Bay Regional Park District, a regional park system encompassing Alameda and Contra Costa counties in the San Francisco Bay Area, enthusiasm for birdwatching has grown from casual park visitors curious about a bird's call to dedicated birders with binoculars and field guides in hand.
Recognizing this surge in interest, a slate of birding programs has been developed and tailored to different experience levels, age groups, and interests. This approach ensures that birdwatching remains an accessible, inclusive, and educational experience throughout the East Bay. Whether visitors prefer a peaceful morning hike, an interactive, community science event, or even a kayak excursion, the Park District provides diverse opportunities to observe and learn about the region's incredible avian diversity.
