Point Reyes Bird Observatory
Birders adore Point Blue Conservation Science, which maintains the Point Reyes Bird Observatory, located in the southernmost part of Point Reyes National Seashore. The surrounding woods harbor nearly 500 bird species—a truly remarkable figure. As you hike the quiet nature trail from the Palomarin Field Station, you're likely to walk by biologists observing the birds in this special habitat, and then later see them at the lab banding birds to aid in the study of their life cycles.
