Sacramento Wildlife Refuge
Sacramento Wildlife Refuge, CA
The Sacrament Wildlife Refuge is part of the Sacramento Wildlife Refuge complex.
Listed as one of the Fifty Places to Go Birding Before you Die,
the Sacramento Wildlife Refuge is a great place to visit during the
Fall and winter months.
Thousands of Snow Geese and Greater White-fronted Geese visit the refuge.
At sunset, it is a fantastic sight to see the Snow Geese take off for the rice fields.
You can also see many different kinds of ducks,
Ring-necked Pheasants, a variety of sparrows, finches and raptors.
I even once saw a coyote there.
A six-mile auto tour is the best way to see the ducks and geese.
You can only get out of your car at a couple of places but you can stop and view the wildlife along the way.
