Hi Tim,
“Salineno Wildlife Preserve” now says Open. Our hours are 8-4 seven days a
week, no exceptions until we hear otherwise.
Chaperone:
We’ve heard from birders this season that they camped there for a fee and
kayaked there. They said no one was feeding the birds. You can continue a short
distance past their driveway and turn right on a gravel lane that’s steep but
do-able and goes directly to the river. It’s a favorite put-in place for
boaters and offers a birding view of the river and nearby island.

For those who haven't visited Salineno: It is definitely worthwhile visiting
the bird-feeding area and also birding along the river (there is a wide
trail). Both are good areas for Audubon's Oriole and other hard-to-find
birds, and it's easy to get good photos at the bird feeders.

Has anyone out there birded nearby Chapeno recently? If so, is there still a
place to patk and pay? eBird report of a Hook-billed Kite there this fall.
