Birding Cienega Creek

The desert and riparian habitats at Cienega Creek Preserve attract a diversity of birds

With fall migration approaching its conclusion, we transition into winter birds, like sparrows and raptors. There is always the chance this time of year to find some lingering migrants, too! Sections of the trail are steep and rocky. Please carry water and wear sturdy hiking shoes. Cost: $5 fee. Online registration required
