Description: What are the most common birds of the oak woodlands of Napa County? Which birds have the highest dependence on coastal oak woodlands for survival and reproduction? Learn how to properly plant an acorn and grow a native oak tree of your own!

With views of thickly forested oak woodlands, this hike is a prime location for investigating this habitat. The workshop will last from 9:00 to 9:30 a.m., followed by a walk through the preserve. There is a moderate up-hill grade to the Eucalyptus grove.
