Junior Rangers at the Refuge: Bird Beak Buffet

Love learning about new habitats? Curious about wildlife? Our Junior Rangers at the Refuge program is perfect for your family! Join us each month as we explore the Don Edwards SF Bay National Wildlife Refuge through fun, educational activities.

This February, we'll discover how the Refuge can support over 280 species of birds each year! Pretend to be a bird as you learn which different beak shapes are best suited for certain foods. Then, search for birds in five different habitats during our engaging birdwatching hike!

Our Junior Ranger program is perfect for families with elementary-aged children.

Other Considerations:

• Please register each parent and child for their own ticket. This helps us know how many attendees to expect.
• Parent/Guardian must remain with child for entire program. Younger siblings are welcome!
• Driving Directions: We recommend using Google Maps to navigate to 1751 Grand Blvd, Alviso.
• Wear comfortable clothing, sun protection, and comfortable walking shoes. We also recommend bringing a filled reusable water bottle, and you are welcome to bring a lunch or snack.
• ADA-compliant parking spaces, trails, and restrooms/portable toilets are available on-site.
• With the exception of service animals, pets are not allowed in this part of the refuge.
• If you need any more accommodations, please don't hesitate to reach out to [email protected].
