Wavecrest Raptor Walk- with San Mateo County Bird Alliance

Join the Coastside Land Trust and the San Mateo County Bird Alliance for a raptor walk through the Wavecrest Open Space.
About this Event

This walk will explore our local overwintering raptor population. Wavecrest is the single most important site on the San Mateo Coast for wintering raptors, which can be seen hunting in the property's broad fields. Raptors and other species rely on its expansive grasslands, wetlands, and roosting sites. Wavecrest is the place to see many raptors, including White-tailed Kites, Northern Harriers, Turkey Vultures, Sharp-shinned/ Cooper's/ Red- tailed/ Rough-legged Hawks, American Kestrels and Falcons.

We will tour the open space preserve in small groups, each led by a docent from the San Mateo County Bird Alliance.

Cost: $18

Please watch Raptors of Wavecrest with Alvaro Jaramillo to prepare for this walk. It will provide a significant background and education on local raptors.

All ages welcome. Tours are small and space is limited, so reserve your spot today.
