Location
Traveling south on Hwy 101 immedialtey before crossing the McCullough bridge, turn east on East Bay Road. Take this road for 2.6 miles to Kentuck Way Lane (some prefer to continue on East Bay Road which is a good option also). This road follows Kentuck Slough and eventually ends about 6 miles into the Coast Range.
DirectionsHabitat and Birds
This area often floods and can be very good for herons, rails, shorebirds, and waders. In the winter this is a consistent spot for Red-Shouldered Hawks. Once into the forest, look and listen for Mt. Quail, Sooty Grouse, Chestnut-backed Chickadee, and Brown Creeper.
