The Nature of Things Speaker Series Presents: Birds of the California Delta - Bird Talk with Aaron Haiman

  • Effie Yeaw Nature Center 2850 San Lorenzo Way Carmichael, CA, 95608 United States (map)

This is an Effie Yeaw Nature Center Event. Reservation Required.

Description: Based on the new book, Birds of the California Delta, this talk will focus on the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta as a place of connections and complexities. This is a place where rivers meet one another, where freshwater meets salt water, where fish link inland forests with the open ocean, where birds from the north come for the winter, and where birds from the south come to breed. The Delta is also a place of complexity. How water interacts with land and forms soil is a complex process. How humans use water, and land contains a nest of complex pressures. All these connections and complexities play out on a daily basis throughout the Delta.​

Other Details: Books will be available for purchase and signing at the event.
