Celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Migratory Bird Treaty! Join the Pasadena Audubon Society and the Arroyos & Foothills Conservancy for a day of bird watching and habitat restoration at Rubio Preserve.
This is an all ages event (but please, no dogs). We will start with a bird walk from 8-9:00 AM, and then help restore Rubio Canyon’s bird habitat by removing invasive plants from 9:00 AM to noon. Please wear clothes that you are okay getting dirty, sturdy shoes, and a hat. We ask that you bring a refillable water bottle and sunscreen. We will be providing water and light snacks.
Whether you’ve been birding for years or just want to learn who is visiting your backyard feeders, we welcome anyone with a love for our feathered friends.
Location
The intersection of Rubio Vista Road and Pleasant Ridge Drive, Altadena, CA.
Between 2009 and 2011, AFC and its conservation partners preserved the bulk of the remaining private land in Rubio Canyon — a total of 41 acres. But we didn’t stop there. Instead, we started working to turn the canyon into a community resource — restoring degraded habitat and trails, making those trails more accessible to the community, and creating outdoor education programs for local students.
