Raptor Walk at Estero Americano Preserve

Free Event

Potter Schoolhouse

Sunday, October 18, 10am-2pm

Level: Moderate

Come on a raptor walk on the Sonoma Coast during the fall hawk migration season with Sonoma Land Trust and Ag+ Open Space. We have binoculars to lend, and you’ll learn skills to easily identify the raptors flying overhead. Led by Adrian Johnson and other members of the West County Hawk Watch.

Estero Americano Preserve was protected by Ag+ Open Space in 1997 and 2001 for recreation and preservation of its natural resources. There is no charge for these events, which are made possible by the voters of Sonoma County who fund the work of Ag + Open Space with a quarter-cent sales tax.
