About this event
Nature Walk: Harbor Bay Island
Hosted by Shirley Jowell, the urban canals are a beautifully designed series of canals that run from Island Drive to the Ferry to San Francisco. The walk is approximately 3/4 of a mile each way from our meeting place to the ferry and back. There is a public walkway through the housing development, which was built in the early 80's and consists of individual houses and condos, surrounded by attractive landscaping. We will pass some egret-nesting trees and see some winter birds.
